Abstract
Abstract A few salient features of atomic nuclei and elementary particles are discussed in this chapter. The need for relativistic quantum field theories for describing fundamental interactions among the elementary particles in Nature is explained. Locality, the existence of anti-particles, causality, and the spin–statistics connection, some of which are part of the constituent principles of ordinary (non-relativistic) quantum mechanics, are all deeply rooted in the relativistic quantum field theories of elementary particles.
