Everything is a Spring - Understanding Quantum Field Theory
Offered By: Arvin Ash via YouTube
Course Description
Overview
Explore the fascinating concept that everything in the universe can be modeled as a spring in this 14-minute video featuring a collaboration with Science Asylum. Delve into the world of classical simple harmonic oscillators and their quantum mechanical counterparts. Discover how the mathematics of springs applies to Quantum Field Theory (QFT) and learn about the Schrödinger equation. Gain an intuitive understanding of quantum harmonic oscillators, creation and annihilation operators, and quantum fluctuations. Visualize how particle interactions and the Standard Model can be represented using the spring analogy. Uncover the fundamental nature of matter and forces through this accessible explanation of complex quantum concepts.
