{"product_id":"foundations-of-perturbative-qcd-john-collins-9781009401821","title":"Foundations of Perturbative QCD","description":"The most non-trivial of the established microscopic theories of physics is quantum chromodynamics, QCD, the theory of the strong interaction. A critical link between theory and experiment is provided by the methods of perturbative QCD, notably the well-known factorization theorems. Giving an accurate account of the concepts, theorems and their justification, this book is a systematic treatment of perturbative QCD. As well as giving a mathematical treatment, the book relates the concepts to experimental data, giving strong motivations for the methods. It also examines in detail transverse-momentum-dependent parton densities, an increasingly important subject not normally treated in other books. Ideal for graduate students starting their work in high-energy physics, it will also interest experienced researchers wanting a clear account of the subject. First published in 2011, this title has been reissued as an Open Access publication on Cambridge Core.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e John Collins\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1009401823\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781009401821\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/27\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 638\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.21lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.61h x 6.69w x 1.28d","brand":"John Collins","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44254844846335,"sku":"9781009401821","price":68.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_6b600ec5-6f35-4aa2-bbd9-ea06dafd857e.jpg?v=1694614650","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/foundations-of-perturbative-qcd-john-collins-9781009401821","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
