  • Double Chooz and Reactor Neutrino Oscillation

    θ_13 Improvement and First Effective Δm^2_31 Measurement

    by Thiago Junqueira de Castro Bezerra ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    This book is based on the author’s work at the Double Chooz Experiment, from 2010 to 2013, the goal of which was to search for electronic anti-neutrino disappearance close to nuclear power plant facilities as a result of neutrino oscillation. Starting with a brief review of neutrino oscillation and the most important past experimental findings in this field, the author subsequently provides a full ... Read more

  • 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

  • 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
