Particle Physics: A Walkthrough Into the Subatomic Realm (The Abc Pocket Guide to the Standard Model of Particle Physics)
This is the first book of takeoff series describing all amazing phenomena at the quantum realm.
Specialty of the book is that it contains some of the precious information which most writers of this field overlook. To make this book easy to read and understand, complex mathematics have been avoided so the reader do not have to be specialized in physics or mathematics.
Matter is defined as anything that has mass and volume. But what makes up matter? All of the particles that make up matter, as well as the forces that affect how these particles interact with one another, can be described by the standard model of particle physics. This guide contains important concepts related to the standard model in an easy-to-read abc format. Words that are italicized can be found as definitions throughout the guide. This guide is only intended to be a brief introduction, and to pique the reader's curiosity of the world at the subatomic level.
The book begins with a fascinating account of the history of our knowledge of the universe and the recent discoveries that have been made about charge mass and particle physics. The writing style is intended to drive the reader to investigate these theories in such a way that even the unfamiliar audience can readily comprehend the subject matter. In the later chapters a revealing and direct approach to the understanding of particle theory of is presented. For those who are interested in greater detail, there are highly instructive appendices that include explanatory and technical notes.
