Book Synopsis Taming the Forces Between Quarks and Gluons by : Pierre Baal
Download or read book Taming the Forces Between Quarks and Gluons written by Pierre Baal and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is a collection of selected papers by Pierre van Baal on the subject of quark-gluon interactions. He concentrates on semi-perturbative phenomena that occur when these particles are confined to a box. He introduced in 1998 the notion of calorons to explain what happens in the high temperature phase of the quark-gluon plasma. Van Baal's discoveries of the mathematical intricacies of twisted gluon field configurations have left their mark on the field, opening new directions for numerical simulations. This reprint is intended to be a comprehensive introduction for all those who wish to have deeper understanding of quark-gluon dynamics.
Book Synopsis The Theory of Quark and Gluon Interactions by : F. J. Ynduráin
Download or read book The Theory of Quark and Gluon Interactions written by F. J. Ynduráin and published by . This book was released on 1993 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book features a unified presentation of the theory of quarks and gluons. Included are perturbative aspects, such as deep inelastic scattering, jets, Drell-Yan scattering, and exclusive processes, and nonperturbative aspects, such as current algebra and PCAC techniques, and instantons, together with an introduction to lattice QCD. Additional topics, for example, QCD sum rules and the quark model of hadrons, are also to be found. The emphasis is on detailed calculations and results that can be tested against experiment. The aim is to bring readers to the point where they can start to work on their own, as well as to give a comprehensive idea of the quality of the theory. Some of the subjects are presented for the first time in book form; indeed a few are totally new. Among these are a full discussion of relativistic and nonperturbative corrections to heavy quark bound states, the interpretation of K factors, and some aspects of jet physics. The book is ideally suited as a textbook for graduate students in nuclear and particle physics, but owing to the many recent results it will also be appreciated by researchers in these fields.

Download or read book The Theory of Quark and Gluon Interactions written by F.J. Yndurain and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-03-12 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present book is not merely an elaboration of the 1982 text Quantum Chromodynamics: An Introduction to the Theory of Quarks and Gluons. In fact, a lot of material has been added: some of which is entirely new, and some of which is an extension of topics in the older text. Among the latter there are two sections dealing with the background field method, and the expansion of the section devoted to processes describable by perturbative QCD (other than deep inelastic scattering) into a whole chapter, containing a detailed description of Drell-Van scattering, jet physics, exclusive processes, QCD sum rules, etc. Besides this, we have added a completely new chapter on constituent models of hadrons, including a derivation of the quark quark potential, and, also entirely new, a half-chapter containing a detailed introduction to lattice QCD. An extra short chapter on the parameters of QCD and an appendix on group integration contribute to making the present book a really new text, sufficiently so to justify the change of title to The Theory of Quark and Gluon Interactions, a change that also emphasizes the consolidation of QCD as the theory of strong interactions. Of course even with the inclusion of the new material there are whole areas of quark and gluon physics not covered at all.
Book Synopsis Quark-Gluon Plasma: Theoretical Foundations by : J. Kapusta
Download or read book Quark-Gluon Plasma: Theoretical Foundations written by J. Kapusta and published by Gulf Professional Publishing. This book was released on 2003-11-25 with total page 850 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this volume is to trace the development of the theoretical understanding of quark-gluon plasma, both in terms of the equation of state and thermal correlation functions and in terms of its manifestation in high energy nuclear collisions. Who among us has not wondered how tall a mountain is on a neutron star, what happens when matter is heated and compressed to higher and higher densities, what happens when an object falls into a black hole, or what happened eons ago in the early universe? The study of quark-gluon plasma is related in one way or another to these and other thought provoking questions. Oftentimes the most eloquent exposition is given in the original papers. To this end a selection is made of what are the most important pioneering papers in this field. The early 1950s was an era when high energy multiparticle production in cosmic ray interactions attracted the attention of some of the brightest minds in physics, and so it should be no surprise that the first reprinted papers deal with the introduction of statistical models of particle production. The quark model arose in the 1960s, while QCD as such was recognized as the theory of the strong interactions in the 1970's. The behavior of matter at high temperatures and supranuclear densities became of wide interest in the nuclear and particle physics communities starting in the 1970s, which is when the concept of quark-gluon plasma became established. The history of the field has been traced up to the early 1990s. There are three reasons for stopping at that point in time. First, most of the key theoretical concepts and formalisms arose before 1993, although many of them continue to be developed today and hopefully well into the future. Second, papers written after 1992 are much more readily available than those writen before due to the advent of the World Wide Web and its electronic preprint databases and journals. Finally, in making this collection of reprints available as hardcopy one is limited in the number of pages, and some papers in the present selection should have been deleted in order to make room for post-1993 papers. For the same reason the subject focus must of necessity be limited, which means that in this reprint collection two wide subject areas are not addressed: the behavior of nuclear matter under extreme conditions is not reported, nor is quark matter in neutron stars. The broad categories into which the material has been placed, reflect the diverse studies of quark-gluon plasma and its manifestation. They are: phase-space models of particle production, perturbative QCD plasma, lattice gauge theory, fluid dynamics and flow, strangeness, heavy flavor (charm), electromagnetic signals, parton cascade and minijets, parton energy loss and jet quenching, Hanbury Brown--Twiss (HBT) interferometry, disoriented chiral condensates, phase transition dynamics and cosmology, and color superconductivity. Each chapter is prefaced by an introduction, which contains a list of significant papers which is more complete than the reprinted papers, though by no means exhaustive. It also contains citations to most relevant papers published up to the date of completion of this volume (fall 2002). It is hoped that the short reviews will help bring the reader up to date on the latest developments. The selection of papers cited in each chapter, and in particular the ones selected for reprinting, is solely the responsibility of the Editors. It is based on their best judgement and experience in this field dating back to the mid-1970s. In order to be reprinted a paper must have been pioneering in the sense of originality and impact on the field. Generally they have been cited over a hundred times by other papers published in refereed journals. The final selection was reviewed and discussed among the Editors repeatedly. Just because a paper is not included does not mean they do not know of it or do not have a high regard for it. All of the papers cited or reprinted are original research contributions. There are three other types of publications listed. The first is a compilation of books. The second is a list of reviews, many of which contain a significant amount of original material. The third is a list of the proceedings of the series of Quark Matter meetings, the primary series of international conferences in this field that is attended by both theorists and experimentalists.
Book Synopsis Quark-gluon Plasma, Heavy Ion Collisions And Hadrons by : Edward V Shuryak
Download or read book Quark-gluon Plasma, Heavy Ion Collisions And Hadrons written by Edward V Shuryak and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2024-02-28 with total page 633 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This third book on Quark-Gluon plasma and heavy ion collisions follows the previous ones, published in 1988 and 2005, that described theoretical proposals for a large program, and then the QGP discovery at RHIC.The present one describes the rather mature field, with extensive program at RHIC and LHC colliders and corresponding theory. QGP turns out to be a strongly coupled medium made up of quarks and gluons, existing in exploding fireballs. It is the hottest form of matter created in a laboratory. Other subjects discussed in the book are QCD vacuum structure, including topological solitons and nonperturbative phenomena. It also includes some recent progress in theory of hadrons, bridging hadronic spectroscopy with partonic observables.

Book Synopsis Quark-Gluon Plasma by : Kohsuke Yagi
Download or read book Quark-Gluon Plasma written by Kohsuke Yagi and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2005-12-15 with total page 478 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Quark-Gluon Plasma introduces the primordial matter, composed of two types of elementary particles, created at the time of the Big Bang. During the evolution of the universe, Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP) undergoes a transition to hadronic matter governed by quantum chromodynamics, the law of strong interactions. After an introduction to gauge theories, various aspects of quantum chromodynamic phase transitions are illustrated in a self-contained manner. The cosmological approach and renormalization group are discussed, as well as the cosmological and astrophysical implications of QGP, on the basis of Einstein's equations. Recent developments towards the formation of QGP in ultrarelativistic heavy ion collisions are also presented in detail. This text is suitable as an introduction for graduate students, as well as providing a valuable reference for researchers already working in this and related fields. It includes eight appendices and over a hundred exercises.
Book Synopsis A Study of Quark and Gluon Jets and of the Long Distance QCD Force Field at the Z° by :
Download or read book A Study of Quark and Gluon Jets and of the Long Distance QCD Force Field at the Z° written by and published by . This book was released on 1993 with total page 18 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) is widely accepted as the correct theory of the strong nuclear force in elementary particle physics. The precision to which QCD has been tested is relatively limited, however, compared to the precision to which other interactions such as the electro-weak one have been tested. In part, this is because the large value of the QCD coupling constant, [alpha]{sub s}, renders theoretical calculations based on perturbation theory relatively imprecise. The confinement of quarks and gluons inside hadrons also leads to uncertainty because the theoretical predictions cannot, in general, be tested directly against the experimental measurements but are subject to hadronization corrections. From an experimental standpoint, it has proven difficult to isolate gluon jets inside multi-jet events in an unbiased manner so as to determine gluon jet properties using model independent methods. Basic quark-gluon interactions such as the four-jet matrix element in ee− annihilations have been relatively untested due to the lack of a data sample with sufficient statistics. Perturbation theory has essentially nothing to say about the properties of the hadronization process itself. It is for these reasons that QCD has remained relatively untested.
Download or read book The Gluon written by Paul F. Kisak and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-03-07 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gluons are elementary particles that act as the exchange particles (or gauge bosons) for the strong force between quarks, analogous to the exchange of photons in the electromagnetic force between two charged particles. In layman terms, they "glue" quarks together, forming protons and neutrons. In technical terms, gluons are vector gauge bosons that mediate strong interactions of quarks in quantum chromodynamics (QCD). Gluons themselves carry the color charge of the strong interaction. This is unlike the photon, which mediates the electromagnetic interaction but lacks an electric charge. Gluons therefore participate in the strong interaction in addition to mediating it, making QCD significantly harder to analyze than QED (quantum electrodynamics). This book gives a concise discussion of the current knowledge regarding the gluon and is designed to be a state of the art, superb academic reference work and provide an overview of the topic and give the reader a structured knowledge to familiarize yourself with the topic at the most affordable price possible. The accuracy and knowledge is of an international viewpoint as the edited articles represent the inputs of many knowledgeable individuals and some of the most current knowledge on the topic, based on the date of publication.

Download or read book Quark-gluon Plasma And Heavy Ion Collisions: Procs Of A Meeting Held In The Framework Of The Activities Of Giselda, The Italian Working Group On Strong Interactions written by Wanda Maria Alberico and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2002-09-23 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers the unique possibility of tackling the problem of hadronic deconfinement from different perspectives. After general introductions to the physical issues, from both the theoretical and the experimental point of view, the book presents the most recent expertise on field theory approaches to the QCD phase diagram, many-body techniques and applications, the dynamics of phase transitions, and phenomenological analysis of relativistic heavy ion collisions.One of the major goals of this book is to promote interchange among those fields of research, which have traditionally been cultivated by different communities of physicists. The contributions in the book help in obtaining deep comprehension of this new state of matter, a system of deconfined quarks and gluons. At the same time the book offers a few examples of how the seeds of the deconfined state are looked for in the phenomenological analysis of the observables measured in relativistic heavy ion collisions. The main topics are dealt with in a pedagogical style, suitable for beginners as well as experienced researchers.
