Leptons and Quarks

About this book

This book comprises an introduction to the theory of the weak interaction of elementary particles.The author outlines the current situation in weak interaction theory and discusses the prospects for the coming decade. The reader is familiarized with simple theoretical techniques for the calculation of decay rates, interaction cross-sections and angular and spin correlations.
