This is the wiki for MITx's _Effective Field Theory_ course 8.EFTx.
When we make corrections to the course (particularly those that affect HW answers), we will list them on this Corrected Bugs Page
Conventions:
- Except where otherwise noted we will follow the conventions of "An Introduction to Quantum Field Theory'' by Peskin and Schroeder.
- Our convention for dimensional regularization is that d = 4 - 2 \mathbf{\epsilon}. Also Tr(1)=4 even in d-dimensions.
- Here are some Common Conventions for the use of light cone coordinates in SCET.
EFT Reference Materials:
- Here is a Summary of QCD. Note that in the SCET chapters we use the opposite sign convention for the coupling $g$ relative to earlier parts of the course, to match with the literature.
- Here are some Useful Integral Tricks that may be helpful for problems in the course and beyond.
- Here are the leading order SCET Lagrangian and Feynman Rules.
edX References:
- Here is some more information on Answering Questions in edX, which may be useful if you are getting error messages.
