  • Particle Accelerators, Colliders, and the Story of High Energy Physics

    Charming the Cosmic Snake

    by Raghavan Jayakumar ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    This book takes the readers through the science behind particle accelerators, colliders and detectors: the physics principles that each stage of the development of particle accelerators helped to reveal, and the particles they helped to discover. The book culminates with a description of the Large Hadron Collider, one of the world’s largest and most complex machines operating in a 27-km ... Read more

  • The B−L Phase Transition

    Implications for Cosmology and Neutrinos

    by Kai Schmitz ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    Several of the very foundations of the cosmological standard model — the baryon asymmetry of the universe, dark matter, and the origin of the hot big bang itself — still call for an explanation from the perspective of fundamental physics. This work advocates one intriguing possibility for a consistent cosmology that fills in the theoretical gaps while being fully in accordance with the ... Read more

  • Non-minimal Higgs Inflation and Frame Dependence in Cosmology

    by Christian Friedrich Steinwachs ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    This thesis explores the idea that the Higgs boson of the Standard Model and the cosmological inflation are just two manifestations of one and the same scalar field - the Higgs-inflation. By this unification two energy scales that are separated by many orders of magnitude are connected, thereby building a bridge between particle physics and cosmology. An essential ingredient for making this model ... Read more

  • Tensorial Methods and Renormalization in Group Field Theories

    by Sylvain Carrozza ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    The main focus of this thesis is the mathematical structure of Group Field Theories (GFTs) from the point of view of renormalization theory. Such quantum field theories are found in approaches to quantum gravity related, on the one hand, to Loop Quantum Gravity (LQG) and on the other, to matrix- and tensor models. Background material on these topics, including conceptual and technical aspects, are ... Read more

  • Cosmology for the Curious

    by Delia Perlov, Alex Vilenkin ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    This book is a gentle introduction for all those wishing to learn about modern views of the cosmos. Our universe originated in a great explosion – the big bang. For nearly a century cosmologists have studied the aftermath of this explosion: how the universe expanded and cooled down, and how galaxies were gradually assembled by gravity. The nature of the bang itself has come into focus only ... Read more
