Produktinformationen zu „Quantum Chromodynamics: High Energy Experiments and Theory “
This book provides an introduction to Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD), the theory of strong interactions. It places equal weight on the theoretical foundations and experimental tests of the theory. Although the experimental chapters focus on recent measurements, the subject is placed into historical perspective by also summarizing the steps which lead to the formulation of QCD. Measurements are discussed as they were performed by the LEP experiments at CERN, or at hadron-hadron and lepton colliders such as the Tevatron at Fermilab and Hera at investigations of the non-abelian structure of the underlying gauge group, determinations of nucleon structure functions, and studies of the non-perturbative hadronization process.

"Quantum Chromodynamics: High Energy Experiments and Theory is the first monograph that comprehensively addresses both aspects of QCD in one place...I recommend Quantum Chromodynamics to practitioners of QCD for its discussion of experiments."--Physics Today"Quantum Chromodynamics: High Energy Experiments and Theory is the first monograph that comprehensively addresses both aspects of QCD in one place...I recommend Quantum Chromodynamics to practitioners of QCD for its discussion of experiments."--Physics Today
"In sum, this book is essentially perfectly suited to provide a first in-depth introduction to the topic of QCD for graduate students."--Mathematical Reviews
