Advanced Particle Physics

By (author) Boyarkin, Oleg

Providing a complete foundation to comprehend the physics of the microworld, Advanced Particle Physics, Two-Volume Set develops the models, theoretical framework, and mathematical tools to understand current experiments and make predictions for future experiments. The set brings together a vast array of topics in modern particle physics and distills the material in a rigorous yet accessible manner. All intermediate mathematical steps are derived and numerous application examples help readers gain a thorough, working knowledge of the subject. The first volume on particles, fields, and quantum electrodynamics covers: The mathematical foundation of quantum field theory The interactions and particles of the Standard Model How accelerators, detectors, and neutrino telescopes are used in particle physics experiments The technique of renormalization in quantum electrodynamics The second volume on the Standard Model and beyond discusses: The technique of renormalization in quantum chromodynamics (QCD) The status of current QCD experiments Physics beyond the Standard Model, including composite models and a left-right model How solar and atmospheric neutrinos are detected and analyzed The books in this two-volume set enable readers not only to perform complicated and skilled calculations, but also to propose and elaborate new theories. Each book contains extensive references that offer a comprehensive perspective on the literature and historical development of particle physics.
