Gauge theories in particle physics a practical introduction. Volume 2, Non-abelian gauge theories : QCD and the electroweak theory Volume 2, Non-abelian gauge theories : QCD and the electroweak theory /

Volume 2 of this revised and updated edition provides an accessible and practical introduction to the two non-Abelian quantum gauge field theories of the Standard Model of particle physics: quantum chromodynamics (QCD) and the Glashow-Salam-Weinberg (GSW) electroweak theory. This volume covers much...
