Description for Kaon Physics
Hardback. This work examines the field of physics dedicated to "strange particles", particles which seemed to have 900 times the mass of electrons and which exist both in charged and neutral varieties. Topics covered include the history of kaon physics and direct CP volation in kaon decays. Num Pages: 640 pages, Ill. BIC Classification: PHP. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly; (UU) Undergraduate. Dimension: 237 x 161 x 41. Weight in Grams: 970.
In 1947, the first of what have come to be known as "strange particles" were detected. As the number and variety of these particles proliferated, physicists began to try to make sense of them. Some seemed to have masses about 900 times that of the electron, and existed in both charged and neutral varieties. These particles are now called kaons (or K mesons), and they have become the subject of some of the most exciting research in particle physics. "Kaon Physics" presents cutting-edge papers by leading theorists and experimentalists that synthesize the current state of the field and suggest promising ... Read more
