1990 | John F. Gunion, Howard E. Haber, Gordon Kane, Sally Dawson
The Higgs Hunter's Guide, authored by John F. Gunion, Howard E. Haber, Gordon Kane, and Sally Dawson, is a comprehensive resource on the properties and experimental searches for the Higgs boson. The book covers the Standard Model and its extensions, including supersymmetric models, and provides detailed information on the theoretical and experimental aspects of Higgs boson physics. Key topics include the Higgs mechanism, the Standard Model Higgs boson, experimental searches, and the role of the top quark in Higgs phenomenology. The authors emphasize the importance of understanding the Higgs sector to fully grasp the electroweak symmetry breaking and the origin of particle masses. The book is intended for both theoretical and experimental particle physicists, providing a detailed guide to the current state of Higgs boson research and future experimental prospects.The Higgs Hunter's Guide, authored by John F.
