What is CONCEPTS OF PARTICLE PHYSICS VOLUME 1 about?

The second volume of this authoritative work traces the material outlined in the first, but in far greater detail and with a much higher degree of sophistication. The authors begin with the theory of the electromagnetic interaction, and then consider hadronic structure,<br> exploring the accuracy of the quark model by examining the excited states of baryons and mesons. They introduce the color variable as a prelude to the development of quantum chromodynamics, the theory of the strong interaction, and go on to discuss the electroweak interaction--the broken symmetry of which they explain by the Higgs mechanism--and conclude with a consideration of grand unification theories. <p>Makes the fascinating concepts of particle physics more accessible to the non-high-energy community as well as giving a deeper understanding to those in the field.</p>
