Probability of interacting 4 Slide 5 or The existence and utility of the two solutions demonstrate a MIRROR SYMMETRY in Schrdingers equation. 5 The +/- solutions simply result from Schrdingers equation being a second order differential equation. Slide 6 is a LINEAR differential equation. which means for any pair of solutions (r,t), (r,t) 1 2 is also a solution. With which the +/- provides the symmetric/antisymmetric superpositions 6 Schrdingers Equation Erwin R. J. A. Schrdinger 1887 - 1961 Slide 7 To which is insensitive since But the factors + 1 are just the two extremes of a full phase shift 7 Slide 8 To which is insensitive since But the factors + 1 are just the two extremes of a full phase shift If we write: Then for the superposition of two states 8 Slide 9 a real contribution due only to the RELATIVE PHASE which provides a way to explain particle interference or exclusion principles the reason that quantum mechanics came into existence! 9 Slide 10 For a FREE PARTICLE: We have simple (idealized) plane wave solutions in 1-dim in 3-dim in terms of physical quantities 10 Slide 11 For a FREE PARTICLE: We have simple (idealized) plane wave solutions or, if youre not uncomfortable with using complex expressions in 1-dim in 3-dim in terms of physical quantities 11 and if you really dont like the complex numbers but neither did Schrdinger Slide 12 The Fourier transforms used to build wavepackets introduce the complex factors naturally. 12 Which makes a representative component to any real wave packet Slide 13 The Fourier transforms used to build wavepackets introduce the complex factors naturally. Schrdingers equation assumes complex algebra!

Herman Weyl 1885-1955 Wolfgang Pauli 1900-1958 Slide 25 For linear wave equations L must involve terms at least quadratic in and 25 L should be a real scalar (to keep the field operators Hermitian) guarantees all dynamical variables (energy, momentum, currents) are real. complex terms must appear as square amplitudes: * vectors must be part of scalar (dot) products: or any matrices or tensors must be contracted Slide 26 the simplest Lagrangian with (x ) and dependence is the Klein-Gordon equation! from which / yields Real Scalar Field L LL Notice: This simple equation contains no more than a kinetic energy plus mass term. It must describe a FREE PARTICLE. 26 Slide 27 The Klein-Gordon equation was offered as a way to recast Schrdingers equation into a relativistic form: Starting from the energy-momentum relation: and inserting the quantum mechanical prescriptions 1920 E.

From free particle Lagrangians need something like: (Limited to Hermitian Lorentz-invariant products of fields and their derivatives) Particles interact when their functions overlap, so expect to include The simplest term would be a bilinear form like: 31 Field equations are derived by the Euler-Lagrange prescription: Slide 32 Notice: Free particle equations are homogeneous diff. eqs!

If we identify this new local gauge function with the photon field: L ' Dirac = e (x) L Dirac Slide 38 L =[ic mc 2 e Demanding the Lagrangian be invariant under a LOCAL gauge transformation, forces us to ADD to the free Dirac Lagrangian an extra term! i.e., the full Lagrangian MUST include a current-field interaction: 38 ) that couples to This new symmetry suggests free Dirac Lagrangians are INCOMPLETE.
