With the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) under construction and due to
come online in 2007, it is appropriate to engage in a focused
review on LHC phenomenology. At a time when most of the
experimental effort is centered on detector construction and
software development, it is vitally important to direct the
experimental community and, in particular, new researchers on the
physics phenomena expected from the LHC. Large Hadron Collider
Phenomenology covers the capabilities of LHC, from searches for the
Higgs boson and physics beyond the standard model to detailed
studies of quantum chromodynamics, the B-physics sectors, and the
properties of hadronic matter at high energy density as realized in
heavy-ion collisions.
Written by experienced researchers and experimentalists, this
reference examines the basic properties and potentials of the
machine, detectors, and software required for physics analyses. The
book starts with a basic introduction to the standard model and its
applications to the phenomena observed at high energy collisions.
Later chapters describe the key technological challenges facing the
construction of the LHC machine, the operating detectors of the
LHC, and the vast computing grid needed to analyze the data. In the
final sections, the contributors discuss the quark-gluon plasma
(QGP), explore questions and predictions for the LHC program, and
examine the physics opportunities of the LHC using information from
the forward region.
By surveying the difficult challenges of the LHC development while
also assessing the novel processes that the LHC will perform, Large
Hadron Collider Phenomenology aids less seasoned physicists as well
as existing researchers in discovering the numerous possibilities
of the LHC.
