Theoretical particle physics uses very difficult mathematics, so difficult in fact that it is impossible to solve the equations. To make progress, scientists employ a mathematical technique called perturbation theory. This method makes it possible to solve very difficult problems with very good precision. In this video, Dr. Don Lincoln from Fermilab shows how easy it is to understand this powerful technique.
