Gauge Fields and Strings
(2018)
Based on his own work, the author synthesizes the most promising approaches and ideals in field theory today. He presents such subjects as statistical mechanics, quantum field theory and their interrelation, continuous ...
Neutrino Physics
(2020)
When Kai Zuber’s pioneering text on neutrinos was published in 2003, the author correctly predicted that the field would see tremendous growth in the immediate future. In that book, Professor Zuber provided a comprehensive ...
Heavy Flavour Physics Theory and Experimental Results in Heavy Quark Physics
(2019)
This book provides a thorough introduction to the phenomenology of heavy flavour physics, those working on the B-factories, LHCb, BTeV, HERA and the Tevatron. It explains how heavy quark theory could be implemented on the ...
An Introduction to Gauge Theories
(2025)
Written by world-leading experts in particle physics, this new book from Luciano Maiani and Omar Benhar, with contributions from the late Nicola Cabibbo, is based on Feynman’s path integral formulation of quantum field ...
Introduction to Elementary Particle Physics
(2024)
The third edition of this successful textbook has been redesigned to reflect the progress of the field in the last decade, including the latest studies of the Higgs boson, quark–gluon plasma, progress in flavour and neutrino ...
Lectures on probability, information and large scale behaviour
(2025)
This book stems from lecture notes prepared by the author over decades of teaching. It is divided into two parts. The first part focuses on classical probability, with the aim of helping students develop a solid intuition ...
Experimental Techniques in Nuclear and Particle Physics
(2010)
I have been teaching courses on experimental techniques in nuclear and particle physics to master students in physics and in engineering for many years. This book grew out of the lecture notes I made for these students. ...
Electroweak Physics at LEP and LHC
(2010)
This open access book… During more than 10 years, from 1989 until 2000, the LEP accelerator and the four LEP experiments, ALEPH, DELPHI, L3 and OPAL, have taken data for a large amount of measurements at the frontier of ...
Effective Theories in Physics
(2012)
This open access book… There is significant interest in the Philosophy of Science community to understand the role that "effective theories" have in the work of forefront science. The ideas of effective theories have been ...
Theoretical Foundations of Synchrotron and Storage Ring RF Systems
(2015)
This is an open access book. This course-tested text is an ideal starting point for engineers and physicists entering the field of particle accelerators. The fundamentals are comprehensively introduced, derivations of ...
An Introduction to Particle Accelerators
(2001)
Many scientists and engineers spend their lives designing, constructing, and running accelerators, yet few universities include a study of them in their curricula. This book is a straightforward introduction used by ...
Electron-Phonon Interactions in Low-Dimensional Structures
(2003)
The study of electrons and holes confined to two, one, and even zero dimensions has uncovered a rich variety of new physics and applications. This book describes the interaction between these confined carriers and the optic ...
Detectors in Particle Physics
(2024)
This textbook provides an accessible yet comprehensive introduction to detectors in particle physics. It emphasises the core physics principles, enabling a deeper understanding of the subject for further and more advanced ...
The Physics of Laser Plasmas and Applications - Volume 2
(2024)
This open access book (Volume 2) is part of the series "The Physics of Laser Plasmas and Applications." It serves as an introduction to the physics of compressible hydrodynamics, which is used to describe the temporal ...
Gauge theory of elementary particle physics
(2000)
Students of particle physics often find it difficult to locate resources to learn calculational techniques. Intermediate steps are not usually given in the research literature. To a certain extent, this is also the case ...
CP Violation
(1999)
The violation of charge-conjugation and parity symmetries is a leading area of research in particle and nuclear physics, with important implications for understanding the generation of matter in the universe. CP violation ...
Introduction to General Relativity, Black Holes and Cosmology
(2023)
This book presents basic General Relativity and provides a basis for understanding and using the fundamental theory. General Relativity is a beautiful geometric theory, simple in its mathematical formulation. It leads to ...
Non-Perturbative Quantum Field Theory
(2024)
This book presents in a systematic fashion a number of quantum field theoretic phenomena that have a topological underpinning. The systematics is provided by the homotopy groups of the configuration space: solitons and ...
