Exploring fundamental particles

An overview of developments in and components of the standard model of particle physics, this book examines the issues confronting those working in the field. The author is a key name in the development of particle physics. The distinctive feature of this book is its emphasis on the three areas of elementary particle physics - CP violation, the physics of neutrinos, particularly neutrino mass, and the search for the Higgs boson - in which there were important developments in the last ten years and for which we expect important experimental results in the next ten years. Written in a mostly qua.

  • "The book first examines the experiments and theoretical ideas that gave rise to the standard model. It then covers the discoveries of CP violation in the decays of kaons and B mesons as well as future experiments that could detect possible CP violation beyond the standard model. The authors also present experimental results involving the once-mysterious neutrino. The final section focuses on the one undetected particle of the Standard model: the Higgs boson. The authors highlight recent experiments of Tevatron particle accelerator at Farmilab, along with the near future impact of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN and the longer term impact of the International Linear Collider (ILC)."
  • "A clear picture of the historic breakthroughs and latest findings in the particle physics community, this book guides you through the theories and experiments surrounding fundamental particles and the main forces between them. It sets the stage for the next transformation in modern science. --Book Jacket."

  • "The search for the elementary constituents of the physical universe and the interactions between them has transformed over time and continues to evolve today, as we seek answers to questions about the existence of stars, galaxies, and humankind. Integrating both theoretical and experimental work, Exploring Fundamental Particles traces the development of this fascinating field, from the discoveries of Newton, Fermi, and Feynman to the detection of CP violation and neutrinos to the quest to observe the Higgs boson and beyond."
