Foundations Of Quantum Chromodynamics: An Introduction To Perturbative Methods In Gauge Theories (3rd Edition)

This volume develops the techniques of perturbative QCD in great pedagogical detail starting with field theory. Aside from extensive treatments of the renormalization group technique, the operator product expansion formalism and their applications to short-distance reactions, this book provides a comprehensive introduction to gauge theories. Examples and exercises are provided to amplify the discu...
