PERSPECTIVES ON LHC PHYSICS
edited by Gordon Kane & Aaron Pierce
The Large Hadron Collider (LHC), located at CERN, Geneva, Switzerland, is the
world's largest and highest energy and highest intensity particle accelerator.
Here is a timely book with several perspectives on the hoped-for discoveries from
the LHC.
This book provides an overview on the techniques that will be crucial for finding
new physics at the LHC, as well as perspectives on the importance and
implications of the discoveries. Among the accomplished contributors to this book
are leaders and visionaries in the field of particle physics beyond the Standard
Model, including two Nobel Laureates (Steven Weinberg and Frank Wilczek), and
presumably some future Nobel Laureates, plus top younger theorists and
experimenters. With its blend of popular and technical contents, the book will
have wide appeal, not only to physical scientists but also to those in related
fields.
