Too advanced

[edit]

This seems confusingly advanced and not understandable for most people. I think there’s a template for it, but I’m not sure the exact template Pokeswap (talk) 12:08, 18 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Pokeswap: maybe you are looking for this Template:Technical, yet I would advise against it, this is indeed a technical subject that it is already advanced for the average physicist that does not do high energy physics.--ReyHahn (talk) 13:10, 18 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Electromagnetism and ghosts

[edit]

The article states ‘An example of the need of ghost fields is the photon, which is usually described by a four component vector potential Aμ, even if light has only two allowed polarizations in the vacuum.’

Electromagnetism does not require a ghost field. The restriction to two polarisation directions van be understood without resorting to this technique. Aoosten (talk) 09:33, 10 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
