Experimental Particle Physics: Volume 3

368 Seiten, Hardcover

Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Particle physics is that branch of physics that explores the fundamental constituents of matter and their interactions at the smallest scales. It investigates the building blocks of the universe, such as quarks, leptons and force carriers like photons and gluons. The field has made significant strides in understanding the Standard Model, which describes the fundamental particles and three of the four known fundamental forces. Recent advancements, including the discovery of the Higgs boson, have validated this model while also giving rise to new questions about physics beyond it, such as dark matter and dark energy. Particle accelerators like the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) continue to push the boundaries of knowledge, probing deeper into the mysteries of the universe's origin and structure. Particle physics not only enhances our understanding of nature at its most fundamental level but also drives technological innovations with applications in medicine, materials science and beyond. This book aims to shed light on some of the unexplored aspects of particle physics. It elucidates new techniques and their applications in a multidisciplinary approach. This book will serve as a reference to a broad spectrum of readers.
