Talk:Asymptotic freedom
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] For this (purpose)
It is within the realm of possibility that asymptotic freedom is an ad hoc theory. It may have been created purposefully in order to explain experimental findings.Lestrade 16:59, 5 May 2006 (UTC)Lestrade
- Well, QCD certainly was, but asymptotic freedom flows naturally from the theory of renormalization groups (pun intendend), which are well understood and not ad-hoc at all. Perhaps read some papers by Wilson of Wilson loop fame.--Lionelbrits 14:30, 27 September 2007 (UTC)
