Modern elementary particle physics Gordon L. Kane
Publisher: Westview Press

Rather than giving you a standard introduction to the modern formulation of particle physics, I am going to take a historical approach. After a quest spanning nearly half a century, physicists on Wednesday said they had found a new sub-atomic particle consistent with the Higgs boson which is believed to confer mass. What follows is a very brief, very simplified explanation of how the Higgs boson fits into modern physics, and how science is attempting to study it. The standard model predicts that there is an elementary particle, the Higgs boson, which would produce the effect of mass. Modern Elementary Particle Physics. It may well happen that the limiting speed for elementary particles is not the speed of light, but some other speed a bit higher than the speed of light. Readers, from the merely curious to the expert in the field of modern particle physics, should read this book. Without Higgs Boson, scientists could not fathom how elementary particles have mass at all. Amazon.com: Facts and Mysteries in Elementary Particle Physics. The objective of modern science is to prove where the Higgs Boson particles originate.
