Introduces Quantum Field Theory as the way to reconcile Quantum Mechanics with Relativity, emphasizing the need for a local field due to the impossibility of instantaneous interactions at a distance.
Explores the triumph of determinism in modern mechanics and the methodology of scientific development, with practical exercises on estimating surgical mask usage and analyzing atomic bomb energy.
Explores the detection of stable particles in particle physics experiments, covering observed and unobserved particles, their lifetimes, and the impact of Lorentz boost.
