Byron P. Roe Libros

Second edition includes a new chapter on queuing problems and introduces a new method for dealing with experiments in which only a few events are observed.

Intended for beginning graduate students or advanced undergraduates, this text provides a thorough introduction to the phenomena of high-energy physics and the Standard Model of elementary particles. It should thus provide a sufficient introduction to the field for experimeters, as well as sufficient background for theorists to continue with advanced courses on field theory. The text develops the Standard Model from the bottom up, showing the experimental evidence for each theoretical assumption and emphasizing the most recent results. It includes thorough discussions of electromagnetic interactions (of interest in particle detection), magnetic monopoles, and extensions of the Standard Model.

The book serves as a comprehensive introduction to high-energy physics and the Standard Model of elementary particles, tailored for beginning graduate students and advanced undergraduates. It covers essential phenomena in the field, equipping experimentalists with foundational knowledge while also preparing theorists for more advanced studies in field theory.

Focusing on practical applications of probability and statistics in experimental physics, this third edition serves both advanced undergraduates and graduate students. It includes worked problems with solutions and homework exercises to enhance understanding, making it accessible even to those without prior knowledge. The book covers a range of topics, including neural net techniques like deep learning and adversarial networks, while also featuring updated chapters on various statistical methods such as Bayes' theorem and likelihood estimation.
