内容説明
This is an innovative new treatment of particle physics using quantum gauge theory as its basis. If regarded as operator theories, ghost fields play a very important role in quantum gauge theory, which forms the basis of modern particle physics. The author argues that all known forces in nature - electromagnetism, weak and strong forces, and gravity - follow in a unique way from the basic principle of quantum gauge invariance. Using that as a starting point, this volume discusses gauge theories as quantum theories, as part of a streamlined modern approach. The simplicity of using only this one method throughout the book allows the reader a clear understanding of the mathematical structure of nature, while this modern and mathematically well-defined approach elucidates the standard theory of particle physics, without overburdening the reader with the full range of various ideas and methods. Though the subject matter requires a basic knowledge of quantum mechanics, the book's unprecedented and uncomplicated coverage will offer readers little difficulty.
This revolutionary volume is suitable for graduate students and researchers alike and includes a completely new treatment of gravity, as well as important new ideas on massive gauge fields.
