- Describes interactions between particles and electromagnetic fields
- Predicts phenomena such as electron-positron pair production and photon scattering
Pros
- Accurately predicts experimental results with high precision
- Provides a framework for understanding fundamental interactions in particle physics
- Has been extensively validated through experiments
Cons
- Mathematically complex and requires advanced understanding of quantum field theory
- Limited in scope to describing interactions involving electromagnetism
