4.9/5 (14441 ratings)

Description:the" theory of hadrons. The author gives an in-depth discussion of a variety ofpowerful methods based on Wilson's operator product expansion. Chapter 3 (written together with V Novikov, A Vainshtein, and V Zakharov) is the most systematic and pedagogical presentation of instantons in the gauge theories one can find in the literature. Chapter 4 introduces supersymmetry. Chapter 5, concluding this volume, reviews the fascinating dynamics of supersymmetric gauge theories in the strong coupling regime. Chapter 6, which opens Volume 2, is a culmination of the supersymmetric theme. It gives a state-of-the-art description of the breakthrough developments in supersymmetric gauge theories. It has been written specifically for this book by A Vainshtein and the author. Chapter 7 is designed as a primer of two-dimensional conformal field theory, which constitutes the basis of modern string theory. Chapter 8, the last, presents remarkable new findings in quantum mechanics. Every chapter contains exercises and a list of recommended literature.Prof. Shifman has been an active participant and significant contributor in the development of the ideas presented in this book. This accounts for the historical remarks and digressions interspersed in the book, enhancing its pedagogical role. The book will serve as a comprehensive reference and textbook for all graduate students and researchers interested in modern particle physics. It will also be a useful guide for lecturers.ForewordForeword (395k)Sample Chapter(s)Chapter 1: Lectures on Heavy Quarks in Quantum Chromodynamics (4,768k)Chapter 6: Instantons Versus Supersymmetry: Fifteen Years Later (7,584k)Contents: Lectures on Heavy Quarks in Quantum Chromodynamics "(M A Shifman)"Snapshots of Hadrons, or the Story of How the Vacuum Medium Determines the Properties of the Classical Mesons Which are Produced, Live and Die in the QCD Vacuum "(M A Shifman)"ABC of Instantons "(V A Novikov et al.)"Beginning Supersymmetry (Supersymmetry in Quantum Mechanics) "(M A Shifman)"Nonperturbative Dynamics in Supersymmetric Gauge Theories "(M A Shifman)"Instantons Versus Supersymmetry: Fifteen Years Later "(M A Shifman & A I Vainshtein)"Two-Dimensional Conformal Field Theory.
