For graduate students unfamiliar with particle physics, An Introductory Course of Particle Physics teaches the basic techniques and fundamental theories related to the subject. It gives students the competence to work out various properties of fundamental particles, such as scattering cross-section and lifetime. The book also gives a lucid summary of the main ideas involved. In giving students a taste of fundamental interactions among elementary particles, the author does not assume any prior knowledge of quantum field theory. He presents a brief introduction that supplies students with the necessary tools without seriously getting into the nitty-gritty of quantum field theory, and then expl...
Algebraic structures including vector space, groups, topological spaces and more, all covered in one volume, showing the mutual connections.
Essentials of Hand Surgery provides a practical manual on the diagnosis and management of hand disorders. The first section covers the basic principles, including anatomy and examination and investigation techniques. The major part of the book is divided between emergency surgery following trauma and those disorders that can be managed by elective surgery. Throughout the emphasis is on providing clear, well-illustrated guidance on the evaluation, diagnosis and management, with discussion of the surgical skills and techniques required for an optimum outcome. A practical guide to the management of hand disorders for trainee hand surgeons, orthopaedic surgeons and plastic surgeons Covers the key procedures for both emergency and elective surgeries Concise text enhanced by a lavish collection of over 400 photographs and 200 artworks in full colour
The volume contains essential information on elective (non-emergency) hand surgery practice. The author, M Merle, a world authority in surgery of the rheumatoid hand, synthesizes the depth of his experience into the book, and presents the management of these conditions in a clear manner. All the elective procedures are described in great detail and depth. The quality of illustrations is outstanding and is superior to any other hand textbooks on the market. There are very few textbooks on elective hand surgery and this will be an essential resource for orthopedic surgeons, rheumatologists, and physiotherapists.

This book collects the proceedings of the Algebra, Geometry and Mathematical Physics Conference, held at the University of Haute Alsace, France, October 2011. Organized in the four areas of algebra, geometry, dynamical symmetries and conservation laws and mathematical physics and applications, the book covers deformation theory and quantization; Hom-algebras and n-ary algebraic structures; Hopf algebra, integrable systems and related math structures; jet theory and Weil bundles; Lie theory and applications; non-commutative and Lie algebra and more. The papers explore the interplay between research in contemporary mathematics and physics concerned with generalizations of the main structures of Lie theory aimed at quantization and discrete and non-commutative extensions of differential calculus and geometry, non-associative structures, actions of groups and semi-groups, non-commutative dynamics, non-commutative geometry and applications in physics and beyond. The book benefits a broad audience of researchers and advanced students.

This volume presents the peer-reviewed proceedings of the XXIII DAE-BRNS High Energy Physics Symposium 2018, which was held at the Indian Institute of Technology Madras, India, on 10-15 December 2018. Gathering selected contributions, the book highlights the latest developments and research trends in physics, detectors and instrumentation relevant to all branches of particle physics, astroparticle physics and closely related fields. The major topics covered include Standard Model physics, beyond Standard Model physics, neutrino physics, cosmology, formal theory, heavy ion physics & quantum chromodynamics (QCD), particle detectors and future experiments. Given the range of topics discussed, the book will be useful for beginners as well as advanced researchers in the field.
In the last few years, scientists have begun to answer some of the most fundamental questions about the origin and early evolution of the universe. In a fresh, engaging, and highly readable introduction to these ideas, James Lidsey deftly steers us along a journey back in time to the very origin of the universe. We are introduced to the fascinating ideas scientists are currently developing to explain what happened in the first billion, billion, billion, billionth of a second - the 'inflationary' epoch. Along the way we stop off to review the latest ideas on superstrings, parallel universes and the ultimate fate of our universe. Lucid analogies, clear and concise prose and straightforward language make this book a delight to read. It makes accessible to the general reader some of the most profound and complex ideas about the origin of our universe currently challenging the world's best scientists.
One of the major open questions in high energy physics and cosmology is the nature and origin of dark matter. Dark Matter in Astrophysics and Particle Physics 1998 provides a comprehensive overview of the current status of research in this topical field. The book brings together leading researchers from around the world to review recent progress and future directions for research in the different approaches to the dark matter problem. It collects results from cosmology, large-scale structure, and accelerator and nonaccelerator physics. The book also reviews the correlations between and the virtues of each of the fields for the determination of abundance, nature, and origin of dark matter.
