'This updated version of the classic textbook serves as a concise and approachable introduction to the foundations of modern particle physics. After covering the basics of the Standard Model and the recently discovered Higgs boson, Kane continues introducing key topics in beyond the Standard Model physics, including Dark Matter and Supersymmetry. Kane is world renowned for his research as a particle physicist, and here he has written a modern and up-to-date introduction to the subject that will be valued by both the first-time student and the experienced researcher.' Scott Watson, Syracuse University, New York, 'Kane's enthusiasm for particle physics and the standard model that encompasses current understanding of the field shines throughout. His book follows a conceptual rather than historical trajectory, beginning with particles and units and continuing with symmetry and gauge theories into consideration of accelerators and evaluations of experimental results. The final chapters examine what physicists may find (if anything) beyond the standard model, including topics such as grand unification, dark matter, and supersymmetry. Several appendixes provide a deeper dive into the mathematical aspects of the theory (group theory and relativistic mechanics, to mention two). A sufficient amount of mathematics is included to move the book beyond a popular account of the standard model without putting it beyond reach of first-year graduate students. The work's length (just over 200 pages) will make it attractive to interested specialists from other fields and to professors teaching introductory courses in particle physics.'

Synopsis
This book provides a strong pedagogical foundation for students and general readers, and a valuable synthesis of cutting-edge research for working scientists. This new edition is expanded to make accessible the latest developments, including Higgs physics, and several well-motivated extensions are described so the reader is ready for new developments., This book is written for students and scientists wanting to learn about the Standard Model of particle physics. Only an introductory course knowledge about quantum theory is needed. The text provides a pedagogical description of the theory, and incorporates the recent Higgs boson and top quark discoveries. With its clear and engaging style, this new edition retains its essential simplicity. Long and detailed calculations are replaced by simple approximate ones. It includes introductions to accelerators, colliders, and detectors, and several main experimental tests of the Standard Model are explained. Descriptions of some well-motivated extensions of the Standard Model prepare the reader for new developments. It emphasizes the concepts of gauge theories and Higgs physics, electroweak unification and symmetry breaking, and how force strengths vary with energy, providing a solid foundation for those working in the field, and for those who simply want to learn about the Standard Model.

- 5***j (68)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Último añoCompra verificadaWow! I'm incredibly impressed with this seller! Both books came in the condition described, packed safely in bubble wrap and a cardboard book box, *and* they look amazing! FANTASTIC seller, highly recommend!! I reached out for a bundle deal, the seller delivered quickly and kindly responded, *and* offered a partial refund on the shipping because it was different from what was quoted (though to be fair the seller made it clear that the shipping cost was an estimate). I will be following!Korean Vocabulary Practice for Foreigners Vol 1 & 2 (#186369702721)
