The Superworld II
During A:.lgust 1987. a group of 76 physicists from 51 laboratories in 22 countries met in Erice for the 25th Course of the International School of Subnuclear Physics. The countries represented were: Austria. Bulgaria. Canada. Chile. China. Colombia. Czechoslovakia. France. Federal Republic of Germany. Greece. Hungary. India. Italy. Lebanon. The Netherlands. Poland. Portugal. Spain. Sweden. Switzerland. United Kingdom. and the United States of America. The School was sponsored by the European Physical Society (EPS). the Italian Ministry of Public Education (MPI). the Italian Ministry of Scientific and Technological Research (MRSI). the Sicilian Regional Government (ERS). and the Weizmann Ins...
Conceptual Foundations of Quantum Field Theory
Multi-author volume on the history and philosophy of physics.
Gauge Field Theories
Acquaints readers with the main concepts and literature of elementary particle physics and quantum field theory. In particular, the book is concerned with the elaboration of gauge field theories in nuclear physics; the possibility of creating fundamental new states of matter such as an extended quark-gluon plasma in ultra-relativistic heavy ion collisions; and the relation of gauge theories to the creation and evolution of the universe. Divided into three parts, it opens with an introduction to the general principles of relativistic quantum field theory followed by the essential ingredients of gauge fields for weak and electromagnetic interactions, quantum chromodynamics and strong interactions. The third part is concerned with the interface between modern elementary particle physics and "applied disciplines" such as nuclear physics, astrophysics and cosmology. Includes references and numerous exercises.
History of Original Ideas and Basic Discoveries in Particle Physics
The International Conference on the History of Original Ideas and Basic Discoveries, held at the "Ettore Majorana" Centre for Scientific Culture in Erice, Sicily, July 27-August 4, 1994, brought together sixty of the leading scientists including many Nobel Laureates in high energy physics, principal contributors in other fields of physics such as high Tc superconductivity, particle accelerators and detector instrumentation, and thirty-six talented younger physicists selected from candidates throughout the world. The scientific program, including 49 lectures and a discussion session on the "Status and Future Directions in High Energy Physics" was inspired by the conference theme: The key expe...
Theories and Experiments in High-Energy Physics
This volume contains a portion of the presentations given at the session on High Energy Physics and Astro physics of Orbis Scientiae II, held at the Center for Theoretical Studies, University of Miami, from January 20 through January 24, 1975. This, second in the new series of meetings held at the CTS, strove to implement the goals professed in the organization of Orbis Scientiae in 1974, namely to encourage scientists in several disciplines to exchange views, not only with colleagues who share similar research interests, but also to acquaint scientists in other fields with the leading ideas and current results in each area repre sented. Thus, an effort has been made to include papers in eac...
50 Years Of Quarks
'Harald Fritzsch and Murray Gell-Mann, the two fathers of quantum chromodynamics, look back at the events that led to the discovery, and eventually acceptance, of quarks as constituent particles ... it is always worthwhile to reminisce about those times when theoretical physicists were truly eclectic, these stories are the testimony of a very active era, in which theoretical and experimental discoveries rapidly chased one another ... Of central importance now is the understanding of the composition of our universe, the dark matter and dark energy, the hierarchy of masses and forces, and a consistent quantum framework of unification of all forces of nature, including gravity. The closing cont...
Quarks, Leptons & Gauge Fields
This is perhaps the most up-to-date book on Modern Elementary Particle Physics. The main content is an introduction to Yang-Mills fields, and the Standard Model of Particle Physics. A concise introduction to quarks is provided, with a discussion of the representations of SU(3).The Standard Model is presented in detail, including such topics as the Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix, chiral symmetry breaking, and the ?-vacuum. Theoretical topics of a more general nature include path integrals, topological solitons, renormalization group, effective potentials, the axial anomaly, and lattice gauge theory.This second edition, which has been expanded, incorporates the following new subjects: Wilson's renormalization scheme, and its relation to perturbative renormalization; pitfalls in quantizing gauge fields, such as the Gribov ambiguity; the lattice as a consistent regularization; Monte Carlo methods of solution; and the issues, folklores, and scenarios of quark confinement. More than a quarter of the book comprise of new materials.This book may be used as a text for a one-semester course on advanced quantum field theory, or reference book for particle physicists.

Quantum Systems: New Trends And Methods - Proceedings Of The International Workshop
Quantum systems in all areas of physics, from atomic and molecular physics, nuclear and particle physics to condensed matter and astrophysics, provide a rich mosaic of different structures. Yet there are some simple and universal working principles of nature which seem to govern these structures and manifest themselves in various forms, as well as likely hypothetical ones which might do the same. For example, the same symmetry group structure occurs again and again in optics, atomic physics and particle physics. Concepts like potential, phases, bound states, tunneling, interference, solitons, radiation and resonance are universal.It is for those reasons that a collection of recent works in t...
Selected Papers on Gauge Theory of Weak and Electromagnetic Interactions
A volume of selected original papers on the synthesis of the two fundamental forces of nature. It is intended to provide graduate students and physicists in the field with an easy access to the original literature.
