Tannenbaum, Brookhaven National Laboratory, New York[electronic resource]Cambridge :Cambridge University Press,2013.1 online resource (x, 387 pages) digital, PDF file(s)Cambridge monographs on particle physics, nuclear physics, and cosmology ;34Title from publisher's bibliographic system (viewed on 05 Oct 2015).0-521-19029-0 1-107-35694-6 Includes bibliographical references and index.Aimed at graduate students and researchers in the field of high-energy nuclear physics, this book provides an overview of the basic concepts of large transverse momentum particle physics, with a focus on pQCD phenomena. It examines high-pT probes of relativistic heavy-ion collisions and will serve as a handbook for those working on RHIC and LHC data analyses. Starting with an introduction and review of the field, the authors look at basic observables and experimental techniques, concentrating on relativistic particle kinematics, before moving onto a discussion about the origins of high-pT physics. The main features of high-pT physics are placed within a historical context and the authors adopt an experimental outlook, highlighting the most important discoveries leading up to the foundation of modern QCD theory. Advanced methods are described in detail, making this book especially useful for newcomers to the field.Cambridge monographs on particle physics, nuclear physics, and cosmology ;34.Heavy ion collisionsQuantum chromodynamicsParticles (Nuclear physics)Heavy ion collisions.Quantum chromodynamics.Particles (Nuclear physics)539.7/3Rak Jan1962-1513300Tannenbaum Michael J.UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910789315903321High-pT physics in the heavy ion era3747664UNINA
