This has reference to the Feynman-Stuckelberg interpretation of negative enrgy solutions in QFTs. There seems to be no a priori reason why we should see only positive energies in forward time...

This question may sound a little funny to most of us, since it is presumed that the 1/(lambda)4 formula for Raleigh scattering does really explain the blueness of sky. However, there must be...
