PHYS 56400 - Introduction To Elements Particle Physics


Prerequisite(s): (PHYS 36000 FOR LEVEL UG WITH MIN. GRADE OF B- OR PHYS 46000 FOR LEVEL UG WITH MIN. GRADE OF B- AND PHYS 46100 FOR LEVEL UG WITH MIN. GRADE OF B- OR PHYS 55000 FOR LEVEL GR WITH MIN. GRADE OF B-)

Credit Hours: 3.00. This course brings students up to the current status of research in elementary particle physics. The focus of the course is the construction of the Standard Model with emphasis on the electroweak theory. The seminal experiments that confirmed the predictions of the Standard Model is presented. The solar neutrino problem, the search for nonzero neutrino masses, and the efforts to construct a theory which unifies all interactions, including gravity, is discussed. Typically offered Spring.
