  • Deep Inelastic Scattering

    by Robin Devenish, Amanda Cooper-Sarkar ...
    This book provides an up-to-date, self-contained account of deep inelastic scattering in high-energy physics, intended for graduate students and physicists new to the subject. It covers the classic results which led to the quark-parton model of hadrons and the establishment of quantum chromodynamics as the theory of the strong nuclear force, in addition to new vistas in the subject opened up by ...

  • The Large Hadron Collider

    Unraveling the Mysteries of the Universe

    by Martin Beech ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    It may at first seem that the world of subatomic physics is far removed from our every day lives. Isn’t it all just a waste of time and taxpayers' money? Hopefully, all who read this book will come to a different conclusion. Collider physics is all about our origins, and this aspect alone makes it worthy of our very best attention. The experiments conducted within the vast collider chambers are at ... Read more

  • Scattering and Structures

    Essentials and Analogies in Quantum Physics

    by Bogdan Povh, Mitja Rosina ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    Quantum physics may appear complicated, especially if one forgets the "big picture" and gets lost in the details. However, it can become clearer and less tangled if one applies a few fundamental concepts so that simplified approaches can emerge and estimated orders of magnitude become clear. Povh and Rosina’s Scattering and Structures presents the properties of quantum systems (elementary ... Read more

  • Manifestations of Dark Matter and Variations of the Fundamental Constants in Atoms and Astrophysical Phenomena

    by Yevgeny V. Stadnik ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    This thesis explores the possibility of searching for new effects of dark matter that are linear in g, an approach that offers enormous advantages over conventional schemes, since the interaction constant g is very small, g<<1. Further, the thesis employs an investigation of linear effects to derive new limits on certain interactions of dark matter with ordinary matter that improve on previous ... Read more

  • Solar Neutrons and Related Phenomena

    by Lev Dorman ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    Short Historical Overview In the 1940s, two phenomena in the ?eld of cosmic rays (CR) forced scientists to think that the Sun is a powerful source of high-energy particles. One of these was discovered because of the daily solar variation of CR, which the maximum number of CR observed near noon (referring to the existence of continuous ?ux of CR from the direction of the Sun); this became the ...
