Weak Scale Supersymmetry

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Supersymmetry predicts superpartner matter states for each particle in the Standard Model. This text develops the concepts of supersymmetry and incorporates them into a framework for describing unified theories of elementary particles. It leads you from an abstract formalism to a straightforward recipe for writing supersymmetric gauge theories, and ultimately to the calculations necessary for practical applications at colliders and in cosmology. A comprehensive, practical and accessible introduction to supersymmetry for experimental and phenomenological particle physicists and graduate students, interspersed throughout are exercises and worked examples that clarify the material.
