 The simplest type of field is a field with no [[basic_notions:spin|internal angular momentum]] and called scalar field.
-In addition, the model is a model in only one space dimension plus the usual time dimension. This is the simplest setup where we can investigate dynamics.
+In addition, the model is a model in only one space dimension plus the usual time dimension. (That's what the 1+1 in the name of the model means). This is the simplest setup where we can investigate dynamics.
+The physics described by the Scalar 1+1 Model model looks like this:
