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.
