Particle physics in theory and experiment

A historical account frames this collection of articles on the Standard Theory, bringing theoretical developments into conversation with experimental tests. The coverage includes the discovery and mass measurement of the Higgs boson, alongside precise measurements of the top-quark mass. Together, these subjects offer a snapshot of how the book presents particle physics and the evidence used to examine its theoretical framework. The volume’s 470 pages give space to both the historical context and the scientific material, with contributions from figures involved in contemporary particle physics.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers seeking an overview of the Standard Theory and its experimental tests.
  • Those interested in the historical development of particle physics.
  • Students or general readers comfortable engaging with a substantial science volume.
