Gauge Theories in Particle Physics 40th Anniversary Edition: A Practical Introduction, Two Volume Set

Explore the forefront of particle physics with Gauge Theories in Particle Physics, 40th Anniversary Edition. This essential two-volume set offers a practical, accessible introduction to Quantum Electrodynamics (QED), Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD), and the Glashow-Salam-Weinberg electroweak theory. Updated with the latest experimental results, including Higgs and top quark sectors, CP violation, and neutrino oscillations, this fifth edition provides a robust foundation in quantum field theory, covariant perturbation theory, and Feynman graphs. The second volume delves into spontaneous symmetry breaking and the renormalization group, drawing parallels with condensed matter systems. Ideal for students and researchers, this handbook provides clear explanations of complex concepts, detailed calculations, and comparisons with experimental data, enhancing both calculation skills and physical insight into the Standard Model of particle physics.
