Quantum Field Theory

The subatomic world has long been known to be truly mind-bending, with particles that are waves and vice versa.  Cats are alive and dead and everything is governed by probability. While this remains true, science has progressed since the invention of quantum mechanics and scientists currently use an extended form of quantum mechanics called quantum field theory or QFT.  QFT teaches us that all particles are waves that interact with one another.  If you thought the quantum world was weird before, modern ideas can give you a headache. In this video, Fermilab’s Dr. Don Lincoln tells us all about it.
