Probing New Physics Beyond the Standard Model (eBook, PDF)

Axions, Flavor, and Neutrinos

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This book presents a comprehensive exploration of unresolved mysteries in particle physics, delving into cutting-edge research aimed at unraveling the enigmatic facets of the Standard Model (SM). It tackles fundamental questions surrounding neutrino masses, flavor physics, and the strong CP problem, shedding light on the universe's underlying structure. The insightful analysis takes readers on a journey that begins with probing the mechanisms behind neutrino mass generation, including the existence of heavy neutral leptons and their implications for collider experiments. The book then navigates the intricate landscape of flavor physics, elucidating rare B-meson decays and their role as a window to new physics beyond the SM. Additionally, it investigates axions as potential hot dark matter candidates, offering valuable insights into their interactions with pions and cosmological implications. This work not only addresses current theoretical puzzles but also paves the way for future advancements in particle physics. Aimed at researchers, graduate students, and professionals in the field, this book serves as an indispensable resource for those seeking to delve deeper into the forefront of particle physics research.
