商品描述

This textbook offers an insightful and practical introduction to computer simulations of neutrino scattering, decay processes, and flavor oscillations, providing essential background on their computational aspects. Through hands-on coding guides and examples, it walks students through simulations of key neutrino processes while integrating relevant historical context. It also explains the fundamental steps involved in event generation for processes such as beta decay, solar neutrinos, and neutrino-nucleon scattering, as well as in the computation of neutrino flavor oscillations and more. The book emphasizes basic phase-space kinematics and the physics required to obtain final-state particle distributions. All examples are implemented using the widely adopted ROOT framework and the Gnu Scientific Library. This book serves as an essential computing tutorial for graduate students interested in neutrino physics.

作者簡介

Balint Radics obtained his Ph.D. at the University of Bonn, Germany. He held postdoctoral positions at RIKEN in Japan and at ETH Zurich in Switzerland, later served as an assistant professor at York University in Toronto, Canada, before working at the Instituto de Física Corpuscular in Valencia, Spain. He has been a member of the Tokai-to-Kamioka (T2K) long-baseline neutrino oscillation experiment and the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE), as well as various Dark Matter search experiments at CERN and in Spain. His research focuses on Monte Carlo simulations and phenomenological studies in neutrino oscillation and new physics searches at fixed-target experiments. Dr. Radics is currently affiliated with the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, Barcelona, Spain.
