quantum entanglement and quantum field theory

Quantum entanglement refers to a phenomenon in quantum mechanics where two or more particles become connected in such a way that their states become interdependent, regardless of the distance between them. This means that the properties of one particle can instantaneously affect the properties of another, even if they are far apart. Quantum field theory, on the other hand, is a mathematical framework that combines quantum mechanics and special relativity to describe the behavior of particles and fields in a consistent way. It considers particles as excitations of quantum fields that permeate all of space. These fields interact and exchange particles, which gives rise to fundamental forces and the creation and annihilation of particles. The theory aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of the quantum behavior of particles and their interactions.
