This book bridges the gap between the known facts about the microcosmic world and the many open questions about the fundamental structure of matter and the Universe. Even if you don't have much of a math background but would like to delve deeper into the subject, this is the book for you. It's worth getting to know more about particle physics!
Rolf-Dieter Heuer, CERN Director General 2009 - 2015 Quarks, neutrinos, supersymmetry, Higgs boson, LHC, antimatter, dark matter - who wouldn't like to know more about them? This book provides an engaging overview of exciting topics in particle physics. It combines fascinating facts with a mix of vivid images and educational text, carefully arranged so that each topic is thoroughly explored within a self-contained double-page spread. The book covers both experiments and discoveries, as well as theoretical concepts and methods. You'll learn how particle accelerators work, appreciate the beauty behind the theories of particle physics, and discover how the history and structure of the Universe are intricately connected to the properties of elementary particles and forces. Step by step, you'll also learn how to extract relevant information from vast amounts of data. Join us on a journey of discovery from the foundations of modern particle physics through exciting developments in basic research to applications that are indispensable in our daily lives.
