Synopsis :

A concise, up-to-date and well-written introduction to the current understanding of particle physics, by two highly experienced textbook authors.

Présentation de l'éditeur: This introductory graduate textbook provides a concise but accessible introduction to the Standard Model of particle physics. Throughout the book, theoretical concepts are developed clearly and carefully - from the electromagnetic and weak interactions of leptons and quarks to the strong interactions of quarks. Chapters developing the theory are interspersed with chapters describing some of the wealth of experimental data supporting the model. To consolidate understanding, each chapter is rounded off with a set of problems and outline solutions. The book assumes only the standard mathematics taught in an undergraduate physics course; more sophisticated mathematical ideas are developed in the text and in appendices. For graduate students in particle physics and physicists working in other fields who are interested in the current understanding of the ultimate constituents of matter, this textbook provides a lucid and up-to-date introduction.
