Paperback. This book is a comprehensive and unified treatment of modern theoretical and experimental particle physics aimed at beginning graduate students. The emphasis throughout is on presenting underlying physical principles in a simple and intuitive way. In 1983, researchers detected the existence of W and Z bosons and many new results have followed. This is the first graduate-level textbook to deal with the "second generation" of particle physics after 1983. 3pi]Features of this edition include: A detailed discussion of higher order electroweak effects; an expanded discussion of quark mixing; revised sections on charm and beauty and on jet physics; enlarged treatment of deep inelastic lepton-adron scattering; detailed treatment of QCD corrections to the simple parton model; and an introduction to the nonperturbative or confinement region of QCD. This series will provide a broad range of high quality books, suitable for experimentalists and theorists, covering all aspects of particle physics, nuclear physics, cosmology, and the interfaces between them. Publications in the series will range from experimentally - oriented books, for example on accelerators and detectors, to books describing broad areas of theory and the supporting experimental data. Shipping may be from our Sydney, NSW warehouse or from our UK or US warehouse, depending on stock availability.
