Fascinating Particle Physics: Quarks, Neutrinos, the Higgs Boson and the Riddles of the Universe - Tapa dura

This book bridges the gap between the known facts about the microcosmic world and the many open questions about the fundamental structure of matter and the Universe. Even if you don’t have much of a math background but would like to delve deeper into the subject, this is the book for you. It’s worth getting to know more about particle physics!
Rolf-Dieter Heuer, CERN Director General 2009 - 2015

Quarks, neutrinos, supersymmetry, Higgs boson, LHC, antimatter, dark matter – who wouldn’t like to know more about them?

Join us on a journey of discovery from the foundations of modern particle physics through exciting developments in basic research to applications that are indispensable in our daily lives.
