Description for Elementary Particle Physics
Paperback. This is a refreshing, non-historic approach to particle physics. It concentrates on the 'standard model' and the gauge symmetries, since these form the core of the subject. After this introduction, the gauge theories are covered followed by the hadrons. Series: Student Physics Series. Num Pages: 324 pages, biography. BIC Classification: PH. Category: (UU) Undergraduate. Dimension: 198 x 130 x 18. Weight in Grams: 1080.
The last few years have seen particular excitement in particle physics, culminating in the experimental confirmation of the W and Z particles. Ian Kenyon, who was involved in the UA1 experiment at CERN that searched for the particles, provides an introduction to particle physics and takes a refreshingly non-historical approach. The aim of the book has been to concentrate on the 'standard model' and the gauge symmetries because these form the core of the subject. Leptons, quarks and forces are introduced at the beginning. After this introduction the gauge theories are dealt with in order of increasing complexity. Attention is ... Read more
