Electrodynamics | Coulomb's Law, electric circuits, Maxwell's equations | |||||||||||||||||
Special Relativity | Minkowski space, time dilation, proper time, Lorentz group, Poincare group, inertial frames of reference | |||||||||||||||||
Quantum Mechanics | double slit experiment, Schrödinger's equations, canonical commutation relations, particle in a box, perturbation theory, Heisenberg picture, tunneling | |||||||||||||||||
Quantum Field Theory | Klein-Gordan equation, Dirac equation, second quantization, scattering theory, path integral formalism | |||||||||||||||||
