Notes
... 1. The theory to describe particle physics needs to combine the principles of both Quantum Mechanics and Special Relativity. The usual framework of QM by Schrodinger Wave Equation is non-relativistic and hence doesn’t work in this case. In this formalism, the space position is treated as an operator ...
