It covers the many different aspects connecting particle physics with astrophysics and cosmology and introduces astrophysics using numerous experimental findings recently obtained through the study of high-energy particles. Taking a systematic approach, it comprehensively presents experimental aspects from the most advanced laboratories and detectors, as well as the theoretical background. The book is aimed at graduate students and post-graduate researchers with a basic understanding of particle and nuclear physics. It will also be of interest to particle physicists working in accelerator/collider physics who are keen to understand the mechanisms of the largest accelerators in the Universe. The book draws on the extensive lecturing experience of Professor Maurizio Spurio from the University of Bologna.Astronomy and Astrophysics Library,0941-7834AstrophysicsParticle accelerationQuantum field theoryString theoryMathematical physicsAstrophysics and Astroparticleshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P22022Particle Acceleration and Detection, Beam Physicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P23037Quantum Field Theories, String Theoryhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P19048Mathematical Physicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M35000Astrophysics.Particle acceleration.Quantum field theory.String theory.Mathematical physics.Astrophysics and Astroparticles.Particle Acceleration and Detection, Beam Physics.Quantum Field Theories, String Theory.Mathematical Physics.523.01530530.14530.15Spurio Maurizioauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut480271BOOK9910300409903321Particles and astrophysics257087UNINA
