The aim of the proceedings is to give, in a comprehensive way, an introduction to the main topics in Elementary Particle Physics as well as to present current research activities on both theoretical and experimental subjects.
This volume focuses on the following topics: DIS at small x and structure functions, diffractive events and the nature of the Pomeron, hadronic final states, photoproduction and DIS at low Q2 and vector meson production.
The exploration of the subnuclear world is done through increasingly complex experiments covering a wide range of energy and performed in a large variety of environments ranging from particle accelerators, underground detectors to satellites and the space laboratory.
The book "e;Leptons and Quarks"e; was first published in the early 1980s, when the program of the experimental search for the intermediate bosons W and Z and Higgs boson H was formulated.
High precision measurements of weak neutral current and charged current processes and of the properties of the Z and W bosons have established the standard electroweak model as correct down to a distance scale of 10-16 cm, and are a sensitive probe of possible underlying physics.
The subject of Quantum Cosmology is concerned with providing a quantum mechanical description of the universe as a whole and, within that description, to constructing a theory of the universe's initial condition whose predictions can be compared with observation.
This proceedings volume, for the symposium in honor of Junwen Wang's 70th anniversary, is dedicated to his many important achievements in the field of accelerator physics.
Quantum electrodynamics is an essential building block and an integral part of the gauge theory of unified electromagnetic, weak, and strong interactions, the so-called standard model.
This volume reviews the physics studied at the CERN proton-antiproton collider during its first phase of operation, from the first physics run in 1981 to the last one at the end of 1985.
This proceedings is a follow-up for the TASI series held annually to discuss the current theoretical and experimental status in elementary particle physics.
This proceedings presents lectures on the standard model of electroweak and strong interactions, string theory, experiments and accelerators, supersymmetry and supersymmetric unified models, and the interface of astrophysics and particle physics.
Professor Freeman Dyson, a great physicist, thinker and futurist, has been very active in scientific, literary and public policy activities throughout his career.
DPF 90 at Rice University was planned as a major conference of truly international character which reviews recent developments in all areas of particle physics.
As particle accelerators strive forever increasing performance, high intensity particle beams become one of the critical demands requested across the board by a majority of accelerator users (proton, electron and ion) and for most applications.
This volume, consisting of articles written by experts with international repute and long experience, reviews the state of the art of accelerator physics and technologies and the use of accelerators in research, industry and medicine.
This volume contains contributions which are largely focused on strong coupling gauge theories and the search of theories beyond the standard model, as well as new aspects in hot and dense QCD - particularly in view of the LHC experiments and the lattice studies of conformal fixed point.
This book provides an overview of recent progress in computer simulations of nonperturbative phenomena in quantum field theory, particularly in the context of the lattice approach.
A follow-up of the 1988 Workshop on New Trends in Strong Coupling Gauge Theories, the 1990 Workshop, entitled Strong Coupling Gauge Theories and Beyond, is devoted to discussions on dynamical symmetry breaking and phase structure in various types of strong coupling gauge theories and other theories, their formal aspects and the related models of electroweak symmetry breaking.
The Proceedings discusses the present state of the art in detector development and design for high energy particle physics and astrophysics, both for the next generation experiments and for apparatus upgrade.
This volume contains reviews and new theoretical and experimental results on the following topics: testing the standard model, electroweak symmetry breaking and Higgs boson physics, rare decays, CP violation, oscillations, physics of strong interactions, physics beyond the standard model.
Quarks, Symmetries and Strings is a book that reflects the rich diversity of current research in physics: it describes quantum chromodynamics, quark phenomenology, superstring theory, supersymmetry, matrix models, statistical methods, superconductivity and neural networks.
