  • Lectures on LHC Physics

    by Tilman Plehn ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    With the discovery of the Higgs boson, the LHC experiments have closed the most important gap in our understanding of fundamental interactions, confirming that such interactions between elementary particles can be described by quantum field theory, more specifically by a renormalizable gauge theory. This theory is a priori valid for arbitrarily high energy scales and does not require an ... Read more

  • Lectures on LHC Physics

    by Tilman Plehn ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    When trying to apply the solid knowledge of quantum field theory to actual LHC physics - in particular to the Higgs sector and certain regimes of QCD - one inevitably meets an intricate maze of phenomenological know-how, common lores and other, often historically grown intuition about what works and what not.These lectures are intended to be a brief but sufficiently detailed primer on LHC physics ...

  • Yet Another Introduction to Dark Matter

    The Particle Physics Approach

    by Martin Bauer, Tilman Plehn ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    Dark matter is a frequently discussed topic in contemporary particle physics. Written strictly in the language of particle physics and quantum field theory, these course-based lecture notes focus on a set of standard calculations that students need in order to understand weakly interacting dark matter candidates.After introducing some general features of these dark matter agents and their main ...

  • Statistical Physics of Nanoparticles in the Gas Phase

    by Klavs Hansen ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    Thermal processes are ubiquitous and an understanding of thermal phenomena is essential for a complete description of the physics of nanoparticles, both for the purpose of modeling the dynamics of the particles and for the correct interpretation of experimental data.This book has the twofold aim to present coherently the relevant results coming from the recent scientific literature and to guide ...

  • Embedded Random Matrix Ensembles in Quantum Physics

    by V.K.B. Kota ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    Although used with increasing frequency in many branches of physics, random matrix ensembles are not always sufficiently specific to account for important features of the physical system at hand. One refinement which retains the basic stochastic approach but allows for such features consists in the use of embedded ensembles.The present text is an exhaustive introduction to and survey of this ...

  • Lattice QCD Study for the Relation Between Confinement and Chiral Symmetry Breaking

    by Takahiro Doi ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    This thesis focuses on an unresolved problem in particle and nuclear physics: the relation between two important non-perturbative phenomena in quantum chromodynamics (QCD) – quark confinement and chiral symmetry breaking. The author develops a new analysis method in the lattice QCD, and derives a number of analytical formulae to express the order parameters for quark confinement, such as the ... Read more

  • Quantum Mechanics and Electrodynamics

    by Jaroslav Zamastil, Jakub Benda ...
    Translated by Tereza Uhlířová ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    This book highlights the power and elegance of algebraic methods of solving problems in quantum mechanics. It shows that symmetries not only provide elegant solutions to problems that can be solved exactly, but also substantially simplify problems that must be solved approximately.Furthermore, the book provides an elementary exposition of quantum electrodynamics and its application to low-energy ...

  • Extreme States of Matter in Strong Interaction Physics

    An Introduction

    by Helmut Satz ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    This book is a course-tested primer on the thermodynamics of strongly interacting matter – a profound and challenging area of both theoretical and experimental modern physics. Analytical and numerical studies of statistical quantum chromodynamics provide the main theoretical tool, while in experiments, high-energy nuclear collisions are the key for extensive laboratory investigations. As such, the ... Read more

  • Basic Concepts of String Theory

    by Ralph Blumenhagen, Dieter Lüst, Stefan Theisen ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    The purpose of this book is to thoroughly prepare the reader for research in string theory at an intermediate level. As such it is not a compendium of results but intended as textbook in the sense that most of the material is organized in a pedagogical and self-contained fashion.Beyond the basics, a number of more advanced topics are introduced, such as conformal field theory, superstrings and ...
