The first three colliders -- AdA in Italy, CBX in the US, and VEP-1 in the then Soviet Union -- came to operation about 50 years ago in the mid-1960s. A number of other colliders followed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOver the past decades, colliders defined the energy frontier in particle physics. Different types of colliers -- proton-proton, proton-antiproton, electron-positron, electron-proton, electron-ion and ion-ion colliders -- have played complementary roles in fully mapping out the constituents and forces in the Standard Model (SM). We are now at a point where all predicted SM constituents of matter and forces have been found, and all the latest ones were found at colliders. Colliders also play a critical role in advancing beam physics, accelerator research and technology development. It is timely that RAST Volume 7 is dedicated to Colliders.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Chao Alexander W\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9814651486\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789814651486\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e World Scientific Publishing Company\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/23\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 248\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.02lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.18h x 8.58w x 0.35d","brand":"Chao Alexander W","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48440444289279,"sku":"9789814651486","price":108.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_392cf9dc-ebc1-4dd7-8dc0-d76013289da8.jpg?v=1777182476","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/rev-of-accel-sci-chao-alexander-w-9789814651486","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
