About this Item

Hardcover. The aim of this book is to give a comprehensive exposition of the foundations of the Standard Model and to outline their applicability to high energy phenomena. It provides an easily accessible introduction to all aspects of renormalization, the mathematical tool that has paved the way for a calculable theory of the fundamental interactions. The theory is clearly developed from the renormalizability of the Standard Model and guidance is given as to its applicationsto high energy phenomena. The book includes all the details needed to derive the results and collects in one place all relevant formulae, recipes and prescriptions which are needed to construct thetheoretical predictions and compare them with the experimental results. This makes the book unique in its field. The Standard Model is a theory in particle physics, which unifies the theories of electromagnetic and weak interactions in atomic particles. Much work has been done over the past decade on testing the truth of this theory, and one testing ground is the e+e- collision experiment. This item is printed on demand.

About this title

Synopsis

The standard model in particle physics unifies the theories of electromagnetic and weak interactions. Much work has been over the last decade, and this book describes some of the leading experimental tests of the model. It is unique in collecting in one volume all of the formulas, recipes, and prescriptions necessary for testing the theory and will be an invaluable tool as experiments move into higher energies. It aims to give a comprehensive exposition of the foundations of the Standard Model and its applications to high energy phenomena.
