Minimal Polynomial under field Q $ a={\sqrt 3 } - {\sqrt 5 }   $     I have to find minimal polynomial for this under field Q
after few squarings I got (1) $ f(x)= x^4-16x^2+4   $
And after I have factored out it to
$ f(x)=(x - {\sqrt 5 }  + {\sqrt 3 } )( x - {\sqrt 5 } -{\sqrt 3 })( x + {\sqrt 5 } +{\sqrt 3 }) ( x + {\sqrt 5 } -{\sqrt 3 })  $
Lets number these p1,p2,p3,p4.
p4(a)=0 
p1*p2,p2*p3,p1*p3 dont satisfy for the field Q
Need I continue doing like p1p2p3,p2p3p1 and so on, or it is enough to say that (1) polynom is minimal?
 A: You are on the right track. You could indeed check that all possible (nonempty) products of the linear factors $p_1$, $p_2$, $p_3$ and $p_4$ do not have coefficients in $\Bbb{Q}$, except of course $f=p_1p_2p_3p_4$. But this is a lot of cumbersome work.
You could also note that if some product of the $p_i$ has coefficients in $\Bbb{Q}$, then so does the product of the remaining $p_i$. For example, if $p_1p_2$ has coefficients in $\Bbb{Q}$, then so does $p_3p_4$. This is because we can do division with remainder with polynomials; there exist unique polynomials $q,r\in\Bbb{Q}[x]$ such that $f=qp_1p_2+r$ and $\deg r<\deg p_1p_2$. We know that $f=p_1p_2p_3p_4$ and hence $q=p_3p_4$ and $r=0$. In particular we see that $p_3p_4=q\in\Bbb{Q}[x]$.
By this argument, we only need to check half of the possible products. We can choose the easier polynomials; clearly the $p_i$ do not have coefficients in $\Bbb{Q}[x]$, so neither do the products $p_1p_2p_3$, $p_1p_2p_4$, $p_1p_3p_4$ and $p_2p_3p_4$. Then it suffices to check that the three products $p_1p_2$, $p_1p_3$ and $p_1p_4$ do not have coefficients in $\Bbb{Q}[x]$; it follows that the products $p_3p_4$, $p_2p_4$ and $p_2p_3$ do not have coefficients in $\Bbb{Q}[x]$ either.

Alternatively, you could note that the numbers
$$a^0=1,\qquad a^1=\sqrt{3}-\sqrt{5},\qquad a^2=8-2\sqrt{15},$$
are linearly independent over $\Bbb{Q}$, and hence the minimal polynomial of $a$ must have degree at least $3$. Then the argument above (together with your factorization) show that its degree is $4$, and hence $f$ is the minimal polynomial. You could also continue to compute
$$a^3=18\sqrt{3}-14\sqrt{5},\qquad a^4=124-32\sqrt{15},$$
and see that there is no linear dependence between the powers of $a$ until you include $a^4$, and some linear algebra will give you the coefficients of $f$.
