First Quantisation for Physics in Strong Fields

First quantised, or worldline, approaches to QFT are growing in popularity, not least due to recent successes in the areas of QFT in strong fields, and in the amplitudes-based approach to the classical 2-body problem in GR. Moreover, the worldline approach has a long history of providing non-perturbative information on ...
