Scalar Field Theory

Scalar Field Theory is a framework in physics used to describe fields represented by a single value at each point in space and time, like temperature or pressure. In this theory, particles can be viewed as excitations or disturbances in these fields. For example, in the context of particle physics, the Higgs field is a scalar field responsible for giving mass to particles. It offers a way to model how particles interact and behave in a universe governed by fundamental forces, providing essential insights into the nature of reality and the structure of the cosmos.
