This new edition of The Standard Model and Beyond presents an
advanced introduction to the physics and formalism of the standard
model and other non-abelian gauge theories. It provides a solid
background for understanding supersymmetry, string theory, extra
dimensions, dynamical symmetry breaking, and cosmology. In addition
to updating all of the experimental and phenomenological results
from the first edition, it contains a new chapter on collider
physics; expanded discussions of Higgs, neutrino, and dark matter
physics; and many new problems. The book first reviews
calculational techniques in field theory and the status of quantum
electrodynamics. It then focuses on global and local symmetries and
the construction of non-abelian gauge theories. The structure and
tests of quantum chromodynamics, collider physics, the electroweak
interactions and theory, and the physics of neutrino mass and
mixing are thoroughly explored. The final chapter discusses the
motivations for extending the standard model and examines
supersymmetry, extended gauge groups, and grand unification.
Thoroughly covering gauge field theories, symmetries, and topics
beyond the standard model, this text equips readers with the tools
to understand the structure and phenomenological consequences of
the standard model, to construct extensions, and to perform
calculations at tree level. It establishes the necessary background
for readers to carry out more advanced research in particle
physics. Supplementary materials are provided on the author's
website and a solutions manual is available for qualifying
instructors.
