It supports learning and teaching with numerous worked examples, questions and problems with answers. Numerous tables and diagrams lead to a better understanding of the explanations. The content of the book covers all important topics of particle physics: Elementary particles are classified from the point of view of the four fundamental interactions. The nomenclature used in particle physics is explained. The discoveries and properties of known elementary particles and resonances are given. The particles considered are positrons, muon, pions, anti-protons, strange particles, neutrino and hadrons. The conservation laws governing the interactions of elementary particles are given. The concepts of parity, spin, charge conjugation, time reversal and gauge invariance are explained. The quark theory is introduced to explain the hadron structure and strong interactions. The solar neutrino problem is considered. Weak interactions are classified into various types, and the selection rules are stated. Non-conservation of parity and the universality of the weak interactions are discussed. Neutral and charged currents, discovery of W and Z bosons and the early universe form important topics of the electroweak interactions. The principles of high energy accelerators including colliders are elaborately explained. Additionally, in the book detectors used in nuclear and particle physics are described. This book is on the upper undergraduate level. 410 0$aGraduate Texts in Physics,$x1868-4513 606 $aElementary particles (Physics) 606 $aQuantum field theory 606 $aNuclear physics 606 $aHeavy ions 606 $aElementary Particles, Quantum Field Theory$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P23029 606 $aNuclear Physics, Heavy Ions, Hadrons$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P23010 606 $aParticle and Nuclear Physics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P23002 615 0$aElementary particles (Physics). 615 0$aQuantum field theory. 615 0$aNuclear physics. 615 0$aHeavy ions. 615 14$aElementary Particles, Quantum Field Theory. 615 24$aNuclear Physics, Heavy Ions, Hadrons. 615 24$aParticle and Nuclear Physics. 676 $a539.7 700 $aKamal$b Anwar$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0791970 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910300379403321 996 $aParticle Physics$91770808 997 $aUNINA
