Details

"Prestigious Discoveries at CERN" by Roger Cashmore, Luciano Maiani, Jean-Pierre Revol is a mathematics book and learning resource focused on Cosmology. Best for teachers, students, and readers looking for stronger mathematical understanding.

The discoveries of neutral currents and of the W and Z bosons marked a watershed in the history of CERN. They established the validity of the electroweak theory and convinced the physicists of the importance of renormalizable non-Abelian gauge theories of the fundamental interactions. The articles collected in this book have been written by distinguished physicists who contributed in a crucial way to these developments. The book is a historical account of those discoveries and of the construction and the testing of the standard model. It also reports on the future of particle physics and provides an updated status report on the LHC and its detectors being currently built at CERN. The book addresses readers interested in particle physics including the educated public.
