Quantum field theory forms the present theoretical framework of physics of elementary particles and their interactions. This up-dated and expanded text examines gauge theories and their symmetries with an emphasis on their physical and technical aspects.--BOOK JACKET.
An expanded and up-dated text examining gauge theories and their symmetries with an emphasis on their physical and technical aspects. New chapters give a systematic introduction to classical field theories and the electroweak theory. Suitable for graduate courses in physics, the…
"This is an updated version of the book published in 1985. Based on QCD, it gives a detailed description of the additive quark model and the rules of quark combinatorics following from it. In the past decade it has become clear that strong QCD, responsible"
This is an updated version of the book published in 1985. QCD-motivated, it gives a detailed description of hadron structure and soft interactions in the additive quark model, where hadrons are regarded as composite systems of dressed quarks. In the past decade it has become cle…
The knowledge of the interactions of photons with hadrons has considerably improved with the study of high-energy lepton-proton collisions at HERA. The results on the partonic interactions of photons are summarized in comparison with photon-nucleon, two-photon, and proton-antipr…

This book introduces the traditional and novel techniques required to study the thermodynamic and transport properties of quark-gluon plasma. In particular, it reviews the construction of improved holographic models for QCD-like confining gauge theories and their applications in…
This book addresses the confinement problem, which concerns the behavior of non-abelian gauge theories, and the force which is mediated by gauge fields, at large distances. The word "confinement" in the context of hadronic physics originally referred to the fact that quarks and …
