Gauge theories of the strong weak & electromagnetics interactions
Quigg, Chris
Gauge theories of the strong weak & electromagnetics interactions / by Chris Quigg - 2nd ed. - New Jersey : Princeton, 2013. - xiii, 482p. : ill.
Appendix A-C 433-458p.; Index 459-482p.
This completely revised and updated graduate-level textbook is an ideal introduction to gauge theories and their applications to high-energy particle physics, and takes an in-depth look at two new laws of nature―quantum chromodynamics and the electroweak theory. From quantum electrodynamics through unified theories of the interactions among leptons and quarks, Chris Quigg examines the logic and structure behind gauge theories and the experimental underpinnings of today's theories. Quigg emphasizes how we know what we know, and in the era of the Large Hadron Collider, his insightful survey of the standard model and the next great questions for particle physics makes for compelling reading.
