Description
This concise and accessible graduate textbook provides an introduction to the Standard Model of Particle Physics. Updated to reflect recent successes in the theory of strong interactions and observations on matter-antimatter asymmetry, it offers a coherent presentation of key phenomena and theories.
The book develops theoretical concepts from electromagnetic and weak interactions through to the strong interactions of quarks, with each chapter concluding with problems for further practice. Suitable for graduates in physics, more advanced mathematical ideas are also explored in the text and appendices.
