商品描述
This is the first book to discuss the search for new physics in charged leptons, neutrons, and quarks in one coherent volume. The area of indirect searches for new physics is highly topical; though no new physics particles have yet been observed directly at the Large Hadron Collider at CERN, the methods described in this book will provide researchers with the necessary tools to keep searching for new physics.
It describes the lines of research that attempt to identify quantum effects of new physics particles in low-energy experiments, in addition to detailing the mathematical basis and theoretical and phenomenological methods involved in the searches, whilst making a clear distinction between model-dependent and model-independent methods employed to make predictions.
This book will be a valuable guide for graduate students and early-career researchers in particle and high energy physics who wish to learn about the techniques used in modern predictions of new physics effects at low energies, whilst also serving as a reference for researchers at other levels.
Key features:
- Takes an accessible, pedagogical approach suitable for graduate students and those seeking an overview of this new and fast-growing field
- Illustrates common theoretical trends seen in different subfields of particle physics
- Valuable both for researchers in the phenomenology of elementary particles and for experimentalists
商品描述(中文翻譯)
這是第一本在一個連貫的卷冊中討論帶電輕子、中子和夸克中尋找新物理的書籍。間接尋找新物理的領域非常熱門；儘管在歐洲核子研究組織（CERN）的大型強子對撞機（Large Hadron Collider）中尚未直接觀察到新的物理粒子，但本書中描述的方法將為研究人員提供必要的工具，以持續尋找新物理。
本書描述了試圖在低能量實驗中識別新物理粒子量子效應的研究方向，並詳細說明了涉及搜尋的數學基礎以及理論和現象學方法，同時清楚區分了用於預測的模型依賴和模型獨立方法。
本書將成為粒子物理和高能物理研究生及早期研究人員的寶貴指南，幫助他們了解在低能量下現代新物理效應預測中使用的技術，同時也作為其他層級研究人員的參考。
主要特點：
- 採用易於理解的教學方法，適合研究生及希望了解這一新興快速發展領域的人士
- 說明粒子物理不同子領域中常見的理論趨勢
- 對於基本粒子的現象學研究人員和實驗工作者均具有價值
作者簡介
Alexey A. Petrov is a Professor and a C.H. Gershenson Distinguished Faculty Fellow in the Department of Physics and Astronomy at Wayne State University (WSU). He has been on the faculty since joining WSU in 2001 after postdoctoral fellowships at Cornell University and Johns Hopkins University. He received his Ph.D. in Physics from the University of Massachusetts, Amherst in 1997. He is an expert in flavor physics, focusing on studies of properties of heavy quarks and leptons.
His main research interests include applications of effective field theory techniques to problems in particle physics. He authored numerous research papers and reviews, co-authored a textbook ``Effective Field Theories", and edited several conference proceedings. His research efforts have been continuously funded by U.S. Department of Energy.
Petrov is a Fellow of American Physical Society. His research has been recognized by the National Science Foundation CAREER award, and by several other research awards. He was elected to WSU Academy of Scholars in 2018, serving as its President in 2020-21.
He is also an author of a blog ``Symmetry factor", where he discusses latest news in high energy physics as well as their sociological implications, and a contributor to popular science outlets, including The Conversation.
