Gauge Theories of the Strong, Weak, and Electromagnetic Interactions : : Second Edition / / Chris Quigg.

This completely revised and updated graduate-level textbook is an ideal introduction to gauge theories and their applications to high-energy particle physics, and takes an in-depth look at two new laws of nature--quantum chromodynamics and the electroweak theory. From quantum electrodynamics through...
