Advanced Studies of Non-Perturbative Quantum Electrodynamics (QED) and Relation to the Standard Model

该项目是对非微扰量子电动力学(QED)的高精度研究。它最终将让我们详细了解“我们拥有的最好的理论”的内部运作。它将为理解和构建理论物理学的圣杯--所谓的万物理论提供有价值的指导。它将使澳大利亚处于基础理论研究的前沿。澳大利亚的研究生和本科生将从参与这项工作中受益，他们将发展的最先进的专业知识将为澳大利亚带来明显的社会和经济利益。

The project is a high-precision study of nonperturbative quantum electrodynamics (QED). It will finally allow a detailed look into the inner workings of the "best theory we have". It will provide valuable guidance in understanding and constructing the "holy grail" of theoretical physics the so-called "theory of everything". It will place Australia at the cutting edge of fundamental theoretical research. Australian graduate and undergraduate students will benefit from participating in this work and the state-of-the-art expertise that they will develop has a clear social and economic benefit for Australia.
