It provides comprehensive coverage of the Standard Model of particle physics for undergraduate students with introductory courses in nuclear physics, special relativity, and quantum mechanics. Examples of fundamental experiments are highlighted, and the theory is discussed in relation to experiment. The author also examines leptons, hadrons, and quarks, as well as the dynamics and properties of the charges of the different forces, concluding with a discussion on neutrino properties beyond the Standard Model. \u003c\/blockquote\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hardback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 562 pages\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublication date\u003c\/strong\u003e: 27 June 2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe third edition of this successful textbook has been redesigned to reflect the progress of the field in the last decade, including the latest studies of the Higgs boson, quark–gluon plasma, progress in flavor and neutrino physics, and the discovery of gravitational waves. It provides undergraduate students with complete coverage of the basic elements of the Standard Model of particle physics, assuming only introductory courses in nuclear physics, special relativity, and quantum mechanics. Examples of fundamental experiments are highlighted before discussions of the theory, giving students an appreciation of how experiment and theory interplay in the development of physics. The author examines leptons, hadrons, and quarks, before presenting the dynamics and the surprising properties of the charges of the different forces, concluding with a discussion on neutrino properties beyond the Standard Model.
