Leptons and Quarks
Elsevier Science 2013; US$ 64.50This book comprises an introduction to the theory of the weak interaction of elementary particles. The author outlines the current situation in weak interaction theory and discusses the prospects for the coming decade. The reader is familiarized with simple theoretical techniques for the calculation of decay rates, interaction cross-sections and angular... more...
Advances in Imaging and Electron Physics
Elsevier Science 2013; US$ 245.00Advances in Imaging and Electron Physics features cutting-edge articles on the physics of electron devices (especially semiconductor devices), particle optics at high and low energies, microlithography, image science and digital image processing, electromagnetic wave propagation, electron microscopy, and the computing methods used in all these domains.... more...
A Bayesian Analysis of QCD Sum Rules
Springer 2013; US$ 99.00The author develops a novel analysis method for QCD sum rules (QCDSR) by applying the maximum entropy method (MEM) to arrive at an analysis with less artificial assumptions than previously held. This is a first-time accomplishment in the field.In this thesis, a reformed MEM for QCDSR is formalized and is applied to the sum rules of several channels:... more...
Quest for the Origin of Particles and the Universe
World Scientific Publishing Company 2013; US$ 195.00The Kobayashi-Maskawa Institute for the Origin of Particles and the Universe (KMI) was founded at Nagoya University in 2010 under the directorship of T Maskawa, in celebration of the 2008 Nobel Prize in Physics for M Kobayashi and T Maskawa, both who are alumni of Nagoya University. In commemoration of the new KMI building in 2011, the KMI Inauguration... more...

The Mass Gap and Its Applications
World Scientific Publishing Company 2013; US$ 83.00Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) is the most up-to-date theory of the strong interaction. Its predictions have been verified experimentally, and it is a cornerstone of the Standard Model of particle physics. However, standard perturbative procedures fail if applied to low-energy QCD. Even the discovery of the Higgs Boson will not solve the problem of masses... more...
Interaction of Ultrashort Electromagnetic Pulses with Matter
Springer 2013; US$ 39.95The book is devoted to the theory describing the interaction of ultra-short electromagnetic pulses (USP) with matter, including both classical and quantum cases. This theme is a hot topic in modern physics because of the great achievements in generating USP. Special attention is given to the peculiarities of UPS-matter interaction. One of the... more...
Detection of Trapped Antihydrogen
Springer 2013; US$ 99.99In 2010, the ALPHA collaboration achieved a first for mankind: the stable, long-term storage of atomic antimatter, a project carried out a the Antiproton Decelerator facility at CERN. A crucial element of this observation was a dedicated silicon vertexing detector used to identify and analyze antihydrogen annihilations. This thesis reports the methods... more...
