Description
This book provides a philosophically informed and mathematically rigorous introduction to the 'standard model' of particle physics. The
standard model is the currently accepted and experimentally verified model of all the particles and interactions in our universe. All
the elementary particles in our universe, and all the non-gravitational interactions -the strong nuclear force, the weak nuclear force,
and the electromagnetic force - are collected together and, in the case of the weak and electromagnetic forces, unified in the standard
model.
Rather than presenting the calculational recipes favored in most treatments of the standard model, this text focuses upon the
elegant mathematical structures and the foundational concepts of the standard model.
Audience
Professionals and graduate students in the areas of philosophy of physics, physics, mathematics and mathematical physics, and departmental and university libraries
