This note addresses current research
topics in particle and astroparticle physics, and focuses on aspects of current
and future experiments in the area. It consists of 2 major parts: Current
Front-line Research, and Experiments and Methods, representing 7.5 ECTS credits
together.
This note explains the
following topics: Elementary particles, Fermions and bosons, Particles and
anti-particles, Scattering experiments, A role model: Quantum electrodynamics,
Invariances and quantum numbers, Strong interactions, Weak interactions, Beyond
the standard model.
This book includes theoretical
aspects, with chapters outlining the generation model and a charged Higgs boson
model as alternative scenarios to the Standard Model. An introduction is
provided to postulated axion photon interactions and associated photon
dispersion in magnetized media. The book concludes with a chapter tackling
potential radiation hazards associated with extremely weakly interacting
neutrinos if produced in copious amounts with future high-energy muon-collider
facilities.
