Neutrino Physics (High Energy Physics, Cosmology and Gravitation)
Kai Zuber

Taylor & Francis, 2003

Neutrino physics remains one of the most exciting fields of fundamental physics today. The neutrino's position at the intersection of particle physics, astrophysics, and nuclear physics ensures continuing interest in the subject. Major activities at accelerators like Fermilab, KEK and CERN, in addition to underground facilities like Gran Sasso, Kamioka and Sudbury, continue to enhance our understanding of the origins and properties of neutrinos, ...

Neutrino Drag

1 review
Paul Di Filippo

Running Press, 2004

Twenty impossible-to-catalog tales
Fans of Paul DiFilippo will readily acknowledge his penchant for sexy, funky tales: he was the author of the Steampunk Trilogy which offered a whole new twist on the genre of science fiction, he's been nominated for a Sturgeon Award, a Hugo and a World Fantasy Award, and he specializes in unusual settings and plots. One would expect the same of his latest Neutrino Drag: Stories - and he doesn't ...

Physics of Neutrinos
Masataka Fukugita, Tsutomu Yanagida

Springer, 2003

This book provides a survey of the current state of research into the physics of neutrinos. It is presented in a form accessible to non-specialists and graduate students, but will also be useful as a handbook for researchers in this field. The reader finds here a global view of the areas of physics in which neutrinos play important roles, including astrophysics and cosmology. The book is intended to be self-contained: Starting from the standard ...

This authoritative text provides a lively, thought-provoking and informative summary of neutrino astrophysics. Neutrino astronomy is being revolutionized by the availability of new observational facilities. Theoretical work in astrophysics and in particle physics in increasing rapidly. The subject of solar neutrinos has many seemingly independent aspects, both in its theoretical basis (involving nuclear, atomic, and particle physics, ...

The book is the most up-to-date, comprehensive and self-contained treatment of key issues in neutrino physics. It discusses all the topics vital to the understanding of the nature of neutrinos such as what they are, how to describe them, how they behave in nature, and ...

Massive Neutrinos in Physics and Astrophysics, Third Edition (World Scientific Lecture Notes in Physics, Vol. ...
R. N. Mohapatra, Palash B. Pal

World Scientific Publishing Company, 2004

The groundbreaking discovery of nonzero neutrino masses and oscillations has put the spotlight on massive neutrinos as one of the key windows on physics beyond the standard model as well as into the early universe. The third edition of this text offers an introduction to the various issues related to the theory and phenomenology of massive neutrinos for the nonexpert, providing at the same time a discussion on results in the field for the active ...

Neutrino Oscillations: Present Status and Future Plans
Patricia L Vahl

World Scientific Publishing Company, 2008

This book reviews the status of a very exciting field -- neutrino oscillations -- at a very important time. The fact that neutrinos have mass has only been proved in the last few years and the acceptance of that fact has opened up a whole new area of study to understand the fundamental parameters of the mixing matrix. The book summarizes the results from all the experiments which have played a role in the measurement of neutrino ...

The Happiest Man in the World: An Account of the Life of Poppa Neutrino

5 reviews
Alec Wilkinson

Random House, 2007

A Portrait of a Hero and Nut
Alec Wilkinson has written for _The New Yorker_ for years, and has ideas about who makes a good subject for his prose. "I do not believe that someone is a proper subject, or a laudable figure, only if he has made a lot of money or been a politician, an actor, a freakish public figure, or a criminal," he writes in _The Happiest Man in the World: An Account of the Life of Poppa Neutrino_ (Random ...

Neutrino Physics (Cambridge Monographs on Particle Physics, Nuclear Physics and Cosmology)

Cambridge University Press, 2008

Thoroughly revised and updated, this new edition presents a comprehensive overview of modern neutrino physics. The book covers all the major areas of current interest. An international group of distinguished contributors discuss the intrinsic properties of neutrinos, the theory of the interaction of neutrinos with matter, experimental investigations of the weak interaction in neutrino processes, the theory and supporting experiment for the ...

The Case of the Missing Neutrinos

5 reviews
John Gribbin

Berkley, 2000

Elementary, my dear Gribbin!
Having read quite a few of Gribbin's books, I tend to find that they rehash the same information quite often. Given the number of books he has written, this is not surprising, but it's still annoying. This book came as a pleasant surprise, since there was quite a lot of new content. As a collection of essays written over the past 20 years, some are not surprisingly out of date, but not badly so. ...

Spaceship Neutrino
Christine Sutton

Cambridge University Press, 1992

Spaceship Neutrino charts the history of the neutrino, from its beginnings in the 1930s, when it was postulated as a way of explaining an otherwise intractable problem in physics, to its crucial role in modern theories of the Universe. Christine Sutton is well known for her popular science writing. In this book she describes how the detection and measurement of neutrino properties have tested technology to its limits, requiring huge detectors, ...

Neutrino Interactions With Electrons and Protons: An Account of an Experimental Program in Particle Physics ...

AIP Press, 1993

This book contains 13 papers that reflect the development of neutrino interactions with the electrons and protons in a fixed-target experiment that, beginning in 1980, grew out of the formal collaboration in high energy physics between Japanese and American institutions. These experiments were crucial to the merger of quantum electrodynamics and quantum weak dynamics, the foundation of electroweak theory today.

Les neutrinos vont-ils au paradis ? Particules imaginaires d'un dictateur
François Vannucci

EDP Sciences, 2002

Physics of Massive Neutrinos
Felix Boehm, Petr Vogel

Cambridge University Press, 1992

Neutrinos play a decisive part in nuclear and elementary particle physics, as well as in astrophysics and cosmology. Because they interact so weakly with matter, some of their basic properties, such as mass charge conjugation symmetry, are largely unknown. These subjects are considered in detail by authors, who also discuss such topics as neutrino mixing, neutrino decay, neutrino oscillations, double beta decay and related ideas. Physical ...

From Dirac to Neutrino Oscillations
Tino Ahrens

Springer, 2000

A condensed survey of much territory, this text is nevertheless sufficiently detailed to serve also as an introduction. It extends from the derivation of particle and field equations by a general method involving Lorentz covariance to gauge transformations, the electroweak theory, and particle-state transformations as used in neutrino oscillation and double-beta decay theory. Historical developments are emphasized, e.g., the important, ...

Neutrinos: A Bibliography With Indexes

Nova Science Pub Inc, 2002

Neutrinos are one of the most abundant particles in the universe. Because they have very little interaction with matter, however, they are incredibly difficult to detect. Neutrinos are similar to the more familiar electron, with one crucial difference: neutrinos do not carry electric charge. Because neutrinos are electrically neutral, they are not affected by the electromagnetic forces which act on electrons. Three types of neutrinos are known. ...
