| Quantum Field theory: Quantum field theory (QFT) is a theoretical framework that combines classical field theory, special relativity, and quantum mechanics. It is used in particle physics to construct physical models of subatomic particles and in condensed matter physics to construct models of quasiparticles. In QFT, particles are not seen as fundamental objects, but rather as excitations of underlying quantum fields. See also Quantum mechanics, Theory of Relativity._____________Annotation: The above characterizations of concepts are neither definitions nor exhausting presentations of problems related to them.

Bernulf Kanitscheider on Quantum Field Theory - Dictionary of Arguments
I 172 Quantum field theory/Kanitscheider: here one works, if one assumes curved space-time, with an approximation, where the metric field is not quantized itself, but is used as classical space-time background arena, i.e. the reaction of the matter fields on the space-time is neglected. But this already reveals that the interaction between matter fields and geometry produces particles from the vacuum! >Quantum mechanics, >Relativity theory, >Gravitation/Einstein, >Space-time/Einstein._____________Explanation of symbols: Roman numerals indicate the source, arabic numerals indicate the page number.
