Title: RELATIVISTIC QUANTUM MECHANICS AND QUANTUM FIELD THEORY. VOLUME II. LECTURES BY J. SUCHER. Technical Report No. 249

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4828713

Notes on lectures on interacting fields in quantum electrodynamics are presented. Topics covered include: interacting Dirac and Maxwell fields; structure of Hi, fundamental vintual processes in quantum electrodynamics; classification of processes; time-ordered diagrams; rules for the construction of the contribution to T/sub ba/ from a timeordered diagram, and rules for the construction of the contribution to S/sub ba/ from a Feynman diagram. Propagation functions for scalar and spinor fields, the theorems of Wick, and Feynman diagrams are discussed as proof of the Feynman rules. (M. C.G.)
