Description:Volume 2 of this revised and updated edition provides an accessible and practical introduction to the two non-Abelian quantum gauge field theories of the Standard Model of particle physics: quantum chromodynamics (QCD) and the Glashow-Salam-Weinberg (GSW) electroweak theory.This volume covers much of the experimental progress made in the last ten years. A new chapter on CP violation and oscillation phenomena describes CP violation in B-meson decays as well as the main experiments that have led to our current knowledge of mass-squared differences and mixing angles in neutrino physics. Exploring a new era in particle physics, this edition discusses one of the most recent and exciting breakthroughs―the discovery of a boson with properties consistent with those of the Standard Model Higgs boson. It also updates many other topics, including jet algorithms, lattice QCD, effective Lagrangians, and three-generation quark mixing and the CKM matrix.New to the Fourth Edition- New chapter on CP violation and oscillations in mesonic and neutrino systems- New section on three-generation quark mixing and the CKM matrix- Improved discussion of two-jet cross section in electron-positron annihilation- New section on jet algorithms- Recent lattice QCD calculations with dynamical fermions- New section on effective Lagrangians for spontaneously broken chiral symmetry, including the three-flavor extension, meson mass relations, and chiral perturbation theory- Update of asymptotic freedom- Discussion of the historic discovery of a Higgs-like bosonWe have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
