Description
For graduate students unfamiliar with particle physics, An Introductory Course of Particle Physics teaches the basic techniques and fundamental theories related to the subject. It gives students the competence to work out various properties of fundamental particles, such as scattering cross-section and lifetime. The book also gives a lucid summary
Reviews / Votes
"... a pedagogical, thorough, and enjoyable introduction to this fascinating subject. ... a carefully written textbook on the Standard Model in the post-LHC era, at the level of a graduate-level course. ... Theorists and phenomenologists with an interest in particle physics would also do well to acquire a copy. ... The biggest strength of this book is its pedagogical clarity. ... Apart from the pedagogical value for novices, the later chapters of the book are interesting for active high-energy physicists as well ... as a textbook, Palash Pal's tome on particle physics is accessibly written for serious beginning students, and is a great addition to the bookshelves of seasoned scientists interested in the phenomenological foundations of the Standard Model."-Current Science, April 2015
