... Here, Dirac’s S is the familiar action quantity L dt, where L(x; x; _ t) is the Lagrangian of classical mechanics. Now, how does this come about? The Lagrangian has everything built into it –kinetic and potential energy, including interaction terms –so if Dirac’s remark is true, then the propagator ...

... Why? No interference between paths leading to different frequencies at the detectors, because in principle one could go back and measure how much energy had been absorbed. Note: it took a long time-integral to enforce this. If the detector had been open only for 1 fs, it would be impossible to tell ...

This second-order differential equation is difficult to solve even for simple potentials encountered in classical mechanics, e.g., a charged particle in a constant electric field, V (x) = −qEx which leads to a constant force (i.e., constant acceleration, x = x0 + v0 t + (1/2)at2 and all that!) or th ...
