This book introduces particle physics, astrophysics and cosmology.
Starting from an experimental perspective, it provides a unified
view of these fields that reflects the very rapid advances being
made. This new edition has a number of improvements and has been
updated to describe the recent discovery of gravitational waves and
astrophysical neutrinos, which started the new era of
multimessenger astrophysics; it also includes new results on the
Higgs particle. Astroparticle and particle physics share a common
problem: we still don't have a description of the main ingredients
of the Universe from the point of view of its energy budget.
Addressing these fascinating issues, and offering a balanced
introduction to particle and astroparticle physics that requires
only a basic understanding of quantum and classical physics, this
book is a valuable resource, particularly for advanced
undergraduate students and for those embarking on graduate courses.
It includes exercises that offer readers practical insights. It can
be used equally well as a self-study book, a reference and a
textbook.
