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

Abstract

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.)
