Quantum theory may mean:

In science:

• Quantum mechanics, an umbrella term for describing all quantum physics
• Old quantum theory under the Bohr model
• Quantum field theory, a generic type of relativistic quantum theory, which includes:
  • Quantum electrodynamics
  • Quantum chromodynamics
  • Electroweak interaction
• Quantum gravity, a general term for theories intended to quantize general relativity
• Quantum optics

In popular culture:

• "Quantum Theory", the final song from Jarvis (album), by Jarvis Cocker
• Quantum Theory (video game) is also the name of an upcoming video game

[edit] See also

• Introduction to quantum mechanics
• Continuum theories, roughly opposite to quantum theories
