From Book News, Inc.
With roots in the Manhattan Project, nuclear reactor physics is the core discipline of the field of nuclear engineering. Besides nuclear power reactors increasingly supplying global electrical power, nuclear power is also employed in basic physics research, naval propulsion reactors, mobile power sources, and production of radio-isotopes for medical and national security applications. Stacey is with the Georgia Institute of Technology, were he developed the mat... >> |

QCD and Collider Physics (Cambridge Monographs on Particle Physics, Nuclear Physics and Cosmology) |
|
|
Book Description
One of the triumphs of modern particle physics has been the extent to which Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) has successfully accounted for the strong interaction processes observed at high-energy particle colliders, for example the production of heavy quarks and jets of particles, and the short-distance parton structure of the proton. This book gives a detailed overview of high-energy collider physics with special emphasis on the study of QCD. After a general descrip... >> |
