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 a " CP violation, (2) the physics of neutrinos, particularly neutrino mass, and (3) the search for the Higgs boson a "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 quantitative manner, the text provides an authoritative review of the story and state of play in particle physics.Hinweis: Dieser Artikel kann nur an eine deutsche Lieferadresse ausgeliefert werden.
Lincoln Wolfenstein is professor emeritus at Carnegie Mellon University. He has made landmark contributions to the particle physics community, including his prediction and study of the influence of matter on neutrino oscillations, now known as the Mikheyev-Smirnov-Wolfenstein effect. Dr. Wolfenstein has been a recipient of the J.J. Sakurai Prize of the American Physical Society and the Bruno Pontecorvo Prize of the Scientific Council of the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research (Dubna, Russia). João P. Silva is a faculty member at the Instituto Superior de Engenharia de Lisboa and works at the Centro de Física Teórica de Partículas. Dr. Silva was a Fulbright Scholar at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center. He also co-authored a research textbook on CP violation.
