This updated version of the classic textbook serves as a concise and approachable introduction to the foundations of modern particle physics. After covering the basics of the Standard Model and the ...
Drexel’s Department of Physics is home to faculty who are leaders in the field of particle physics. Our research spans neutrino properties, neutrino astronomy, and the search for dark matter, and our ...
It is a very comprehensive framework backed by extensive experimental evidence and is the foundation of modern particle physics. The Standard Model extends the principles of quantum mechanics ...
Modern Physics intertwines active learning pedagogy with the material typically covered in an introductory survey, from the basics of relativity and quantum mechanics through recent developments in ...
In Drexel University’s physics department, faculty and students work side-by-side to explore the span of universal phenomena – from biophysics to astrophysics and cosmology, all the way down to the ...
Neutrinos masses and oscillations are still one of the open questions in modern particle physics and future experimental results have the potential to provide us with insight into the formation of ...
The next head of Europe's CERN physics laboratory said Thursday that he favored moving forward with plans for a giant ...
Fifty years ago, a team at SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory in Menlo Park made a discovery that turned the world of ...
The measurement is the first conclusive experimental result that is at odds with one of the most important and successful theories of modern physics. The team has found that the particle ...
Particle Physics is all about understanding the fundamental building blocks of matter and how they interact with each other. To do this, modern particle physicists build large experiments where the ...
Thus, modern particle physics generally investigates the Standard Model and its various possible extensions, e.g. to the newest "known" particle, the Higgs boson, or even to the oldest known force ...
