The Standard Model of elementary particle physics was tentatively
outlined in the early 1970s. The concepts of quarks, leptons,
neutrinos, gauge symmetries, chiral interactions, Higgs boson,
strong force, weak force, and electromagnetism were all put
together to form a unifying theory of elementary particles.
Furthermore, the model was developed within the context of
relativistic quantum field theory, making it compatible with all of
the laws of Einstein's Special Relativity. The successes of the
Standard Model over the years have been tremendous and enduring,
leading up to the recent discovery and continuing study of the
Higgs boson. This book is a comprehensive and technical
introduction to Standard Model physics. Martin and Wells provide
readers who have no prior knowledge of quantum field theory or
particle physics a firm foundation into the fundamentals of both.
The emphasis is on obtaining practical knowledge of how to
calculate cross-sections and decay rates. There is no better way to
understand the necessary abstract knowledge and solidify its
meaning than to learn how to apply it to the computation of
observables that can be measured in a laboratory. Beginning
graduate students, both experimental and theoretical, and advanced
undergraduate students interested in particle physics, will find
this to be an ideal one-semester textbook to begin their technical
learning of elementary particle physics.
