[Math] Non-trivial example of algebraically closed fields

Question

I'm beginning an introductory course on Galois Theory and we've just started to talk about algebraic closed fields and extensions.

The typical example of algebraically closed fields is $\mathbb{C}$ and the typical non-examples are $\mathbb{R}, \mathbb{Q}$ and arbitrary finite fields.

I'm trying to find some explicit, non-typical example of algebraically closed fields, but it seems like a complicated task. Any ideas?

Answer 1

Another concrete example is given by Puiseux's theorem:

If $K$ is an algebraically closed field of characteristic $0$, the field $K\langle\langle X\rangle\rangle$ of Puiseux's series is an algebraic closure of the field of formal power series $K((X))$.

Note:

$K\langle\langle X\rangle\rangle=\displaystyle\bigcup_{n\ge1}K((X^{1/n}))$
