Relation between the trace anomaly and the energy-momentum tensor being off-shell

Let's say we have a massless QED theory with a Lagrangian begin{equation}L=ibar{psi}not{D}psi-frac{1}{4}F_{munu}F^{munu}end{equation} The symmetric energy-momentum tensor is begin{equation}Theta^{munu}=frac{1}{2}bar{psi}Big{gamma^mu D^nu+gamma^nu D^muBig}psi-eta^{munu}ibar{psi}not{D}psi-F^{mulambda}F^nu_{ lambda}+frac{1}{4}eta^{mu nu}F^{sigmalambda}F_{sigmalambda}end{equation} The trace...

Trying to understand decoherence... how would macroscopic objects behave without decoherence?

I've read it said that decoherence is the reason we don't observe macroscopic superpositions. I find this very confusing... what exactly does it mean to observe a macroscopic superposition? Doesn't...

Screened Coulomb potential in metals

One of the reasons why we can neglect electron-electron interactions in metals is the fact that their coulomb interaction is screened. I'm confused about the nature of this screening. In...

Ward Identity and Gupta-Bleuler condition

Reading David Tong notes on QFT, he mentions about Gupta-Bleuler condition $$partial^{mu}A_{mu}^{+}|Psirangle=0tag{6.54},$$ which makes sure that matrix elements vanish,$$langle Psi|partial_{mu}A^{mu}|Psirangle=0.tag{6.55}$$ I also came across Ward...
