要約、抄録、注釈等 |
"It is an everyday fact of life that Nature comes to us with a variety of scales: from quarks, nuclei and atoms through planets, stars and galaxies up to the overall Universal large-scale structure. Science progresses because we can understand each of these on its own terms, and need not understand all scales at once. This is possible because of a basic fact of Nature: most of the details of small distance physics are irrelevant for the description of longer-distance phenomena. Our description of Nature's laws use quantum field theories, which share this property that short distances mostly decouple from larger ones. Effective Field Theories (EFTs) are the tools developed over the years to show why they do. These tools have immense practical value: knowing which scales are important and why the rest decouple allows hierarchies of scale to be used to simplify the description of many systems. This book provides an introduction to these tools, and to emphasize their great generality illustrates them using applications from many parts of physics: relativistic and nonrelativistic; few-body and many-body."--Preface
