Integral form of energy-momentum tensor conservation (Stokes' theorem)

Is there a way in which the conservation law of the energy momentum tensor $nabla _nu T^{munu}=0$ can be written in integral form using Stokes' theorem, namely as...

Decoherence and Young's double slit experiment

If we shine light on an electron wave passing through a double slit then the interference pattern is destroyed. This is now understood as decoherence coming from interaction of the...

How do you calculate impulse when given the height and not velocity without using conservation of energy?

I'm doing mechanics and I came across this question:A ball of mass 0.2 kg is dropped from a height of 2.5 m above horizontal ground.After hitting the ground it...

$phi^4$-theory, S-matrix Feynman diagram to first order from Peskin and Schroeder

This relates to page 111 in Peskin and Schroeder. We have the $phi^4$ S-matrix for a 2-particle to 2-particle scattering reaction: $$-ifrac{lambda}{4!}int d^4x langle p_1p_2|mathcal Tleft(phi(x)phi(x)phi(x)phi(x)right)|p_Ap_Brangle tag{4.90}$$ For...

What are some characteristics of r as in $tau = mr^2alpha$?

Can r just be the distance from an object center of mass to the axis of rotation? If not, it will be very hard to calculate r for things that...

Uncertainty principle in relativistic quantum mechanics

In Walter Greiner book about relativistic quantum mechanics, he writes the uncertainty relations for 4-position and 4-momentum in a neat way as: $$[p^mu, x^nu] = ihbar eta^{munu}{bf 1}$$ with...

Ohm's law in pn junction

I have just finished reading about biasing in pn junctions. I learnt that in forward biasing, the external electric field applied slowly neutralizes the depletion layer and a current is...
