The Standard Model

 
Lectures: MoN 2-3pm + THu 2-3pm, SUPA room, JCMB 6224 TUTORIALS: Friday 4-6pm, JCMB 4311 UPDATED: Draft version of this years notes (rewriting Ch15 on) Notes: SM_2014.pdf Tutorials: Tutorials_2014.pdf ORIGINAL PAPERS: For those with a love of scientific history, I will distribute relevant historic papers as we go. The following links should work from with UoE as we have institutional journal subscription. Other papers will be added here, so check back. Feynman: Space-Time approach to Nonrelativistic Quantum Mechanics Feynman: Space-Time approach to Quantum Electrodynamics Yang, Mills: (SU2 Gauge Theory) Gell-Mann: Hadron symmetries Goldstone: Broken Symmetries Higgs: Broken Symmetries and the Masses of Gauge Bosons T. D. Lee and C. N. Yang :Parity Nonconservation and a Two-Component Theory of the Neutrino Feynman and Gell-Mann: Theory of the Fermi Interaction Weinberg: A model of leptons Cabibbo: Unitary symmetry and leptonic decays Kobayashi-Maskawa: CP violation in the renormalizable theory of weak interactions Gross and Wilczek: Asymptotically free gauge theories Nobel Prize Talks: These are historically interesting and have talks on important topics spectacularly well written for the general audience by the originator of each discovery. Brilliant resource: http://nobelprize.org/nobel_prizes/physics/laureates/ 2008: Nambu, Kobayashi, Maskawa -- Spontaneous symmetry breaking ,CKM matrix 2004: Gross, Wilczek, Politzer-- Asymptotic freedom 1999: ‘t Hooft, Veltman -- Renormalizability of gauge theories 1988: Lederman, Schwartz, Steinberger -- muon neutrino 1984: Rubbia, van der Meer -- W and Z boson discovery 1982: Wilson -- renormalisation group 1980: Cronin, Fitch -- CP violation 1979: Glashow, Salam, Weinberg -- Electroweak theory 1969: Gell-Mann, Quark model 1965: Schwinger, Feynman, Tomonaga -- QED 1957: Yang, Lee -- Parity violation Books: Cheng and Li, “Gauge theory of elementary particle physics” Srednecki, “Quantum Field Theory” -- try before you buy Peskin and Schroeder, “An Introduction to Quantum Field Theory” Last years Notes: In the spirit that more material is always useful, below are last year’s notes. Feedback on the changes is welcome. Substantives changes are to the derivation of Feynman rules, and the addition of more flavour physics and hadronic matrix elemnts.
