Sommario/riassunto

Meeting the need for a coherently written and comprehensive compendium combining field theory and particle physics for advanced students and researchers, this book directly links the theory to the experiments. It is clearly divided into two sections covering approaches to field theory and the standard model, and rounded off with numerous useful appendices.A timely volume for high energy and theoretical physicists, as well as astronomers, graduate students and lecturers in physics.Volume 2 concentrates on the main aspects of the Standard



Model by addressing its recent developments and f
