Description: "Electroweak Theory describes the structure and properties of field theories with global and local symmetries, leading to the construction of the standard model. The greater part of the book explains the basic predictions of the theory. It describes the new particles and processes predicted by the theory, and compares them with experimental results. Among the topics covered are neutral currents, the properties of W and Z bosons, the properties of quarks and mesons containing heavy quarks, neutrino oscillations, CP-asymmetries in K, D, and B meson decays, and the search for Higgs particles."--BOOK JACKET.
