Recenzii
The authors are well qualified to undertake such an introduction to particle and high-energy physics in view of their theoretical and practical experience … For a clear and comparatively simple overview of the concepts, nomenclature and salient features of the Standard Model, this introductory text offers a wealth of information and can be recommended as a jumping off point for more detailed specialist study.

Notă biografică
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).Joao P. Silva is a faculty member at the Instituto Superior de Engenharia de Lisboa and works at the Centro de Fisica Teorica de Particulas. Dr. Silva was a Fulbright Scholar at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center. He also co-authored a research textbook on CP violation.
Descriere
Presenting 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. It focuses on the three areas of elementary particle physics - CP violation, the physics of neutrinos, particularly neutrino mass, and the search for the Higgs boson.
