商品描述

Volume 3 of this three-part series presents more advanced topics and applications of relativistic quantum field theory.

The application of quantum chromodynamics to high-energy particle scattering is discussed with concrete examples for how to compute QCD scattering cross sections. Experimental evidence for the existence of quarks and gluons is then presented both within the context of the naive quark model and beyond. Dr Strickland then reviews our current understanding of the weak interaction, the unified electroweak theory, and the Brout-Higgs-Englert mechanism for the generation of gauge boson masses. The last two chapters contain a self-contained introduction to finite temperature quantum field theory with concrete examples focusing on the high-temperature thermodynamics of scalar field theories, QED, and QCD.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

第三卷是這三部分系列中的最後一卷,介紹了相對論量子場論的更高級主題和應用。

本書討論了量子色動力學(quantum chromodynamics, QCD)在高能粒子散射中的應用,並提供了具體範例來計算 QCD 散射截面。接著,書中呈現了夸克(quarks)和膠子(gluons)存在的實驗證據,這些證據不僅在天真的夸克模型(naive quark model)中得到解釋,還超越了該模型。Strickland 博士回顧了我們對弱相互作用(weak interaction)、統一的電弱理論(unified electroweak theory)以及 Brout-Higgs-Englert 機制(Brout-Higgs-Englert mechanism)生成規範玻色子質量的當前理解。最後兩章包含了一個獨立的有限溫度量子場論(finite temperature quantum field theory)介紹,並提供了具體範例,重點關注標量場理論(scalar field theories)、量子電動力學(QED)和量子色動力學(QCD)的高溫熱力學。
