Field theory models interactions using fields defined over space and time.
Description
Field theory replaces particle-based descriptions with fields that can vary continuously. It provides a unified way to describe interactions and collective behavior.
Properties
- uses continuous fields
- describes interactions
- basis for advanced quantum theory
