Written by authors working at the forefront of research, this
accessible treatment presents the current status of the field of
collider-based particle physics at the highest energies available,
as well as recent results and experimental techniques.
It is clearly divided into three sections; The first covers the
physics -- discussing the various aspects of the Standard Model as
well as its extensions, explaining important experimental results
and highlighting the expectations from the Large Hadron Collider
(LHC). The second is dedicated to the involved technologies and
detector concepts, and the third covers the important - but often
neglected - topics of the organisation and financing of high-energy
physics research.
A useful resource for students and researchers from high-energy
physics.
This comprehensive volume summarizes and structures the multitude
of results obtained at the LHC in its first running period and
draws the grand picture of today's physics at a hadron collider.
Topics covered are Standard Model measurements, Higgs and top-quark
physics, flavour physics, heavy-ion physics, and searches for
supersymmetry and other extensions of the Standard Model. Emphasis
is placed on overview and presentation of the lessons learned.
Chapters on detectors and the LHC machine and a thorough outlook
into the future complement the book. The individual chapters are
written by teams of expert authors working at the forefront of LHC
research.
