This model exhibits confinement of the fermions and as such, is a toy model for QCD. A handwaving argument why this is so is because in two dimensions, classically, the potential between two charged particles goes linearly as r {\displaystyle r} , instead of 1 / r {\displaystyle 1/r} in 4 dimensions, 3 spatial, 1 time.
Dyons were first proposed by Julian Schwinger in 1969 as a phenomenological alternative to quarks. [1] He extended the Dirac quantization condition to the dyon and used the model to predict the existence of a particle with the properties of the J/ψ meson prior to its discovery in 1974.
In non-equilibrium physics, the Keldysh formalism or Keldysh–Schwinger formalism is a general framework for describing the quantum mechanical evolution of a system in a non-equilibrium state or systems subject to time varying external fields (electrical field, magnetic field etc.).
By utilizing the interaction picture, one can use time-dependent perturbation theory to find the effect of H 1,I, [15]: 355ff e.g., in the derivation of Fermi's golden rule, [15]: 359–363 or the Dyson series [15]: 355–357 in quantum field theory: in 1947, Shin'ichirÅ Tomonaga and Julian Schwinger appreciated that covariant perturbation ...
In addition to QCD in four spacetime dimensions, the two-dimensional Schwinger model also exhibits confinement. [9] Compact Abelian gauge theories also exhibit confinement in 2 and 3 spacetime dimensions. [10] Confinement has been found in elementary excitations of magnetic systems called spinons. [11]
Quantum cosmology [1] [2] is the attempt in theoretical physics to develop a quantum theory of the universe.This approach attempts to answer open questions of classical physical cosmology, particularly those related to the first phases of the universe.
In 1941, Rarita and Schwinger focussed on spin-3 ⁄ 2 particles and derived the Rarita–Schwinger equation, including a Lagrangian to generate it, and later generalized the equations analogous to spin n + 1 ⁄ 2 for integer n. In 1945, Pauli suggested Majorana's 1932 paper to Bhabha, who returned to the general ideas introduced by Majorana ...
In Schwinger's approach, the action principle is targeted towards quantum mechanics. The action becomes a quantum action , i.e. an operator, S {\displaystyle S} . Although it is superficially different from the path integral formulation where the action is a classical function, the modern formulation of the two formalisms are identical.
