For graduate students unfamiliar with particle physics, An Introduc-tory Course of Particle Physics teaches the basic techniques and fundamental theories related to the subject. It gives students the competence to work out various properties of fundamental particles, such as scattering cross-section and lifetime. The book also gives a

Reviewed the experimental situation that led to the advent of particle physics - the study of sub-atomic structures. Two central ingredients: Special relativity and quantum mechanics. Will assume familiarity with the concepts presented today. To read: Coughlan, Dodd & Gripaios, “The ideas of particle physics”, Sec 1-3.

What is Particle Physics? Protons, electrons, neutrons, neutrinos and even quarks are often featured in news of scientific discoveries. All of these, and a whole "zoo" of others, are tiny sub-atomic particles too small to be seen even in microscopes. While molecules and atoms are the basic elements of familiar substances that we can see and
