Algebraic closure is a concept in field theory that refers to a field extension where every non-constant polynomial with coefficients in that field has a root within the extension. This means that the algebraic closure contains all the solutions to polynomial equations that can be formed using elements from the original field. It helps to understand how fields can be extended and provides a complete framework for solving polynomial equations.
