The Higgs Hunter's Guide

The Higgs Hunter's Guide

1990 | John F. Gunion, Howard E. Haber, Gordon Kane, Sally Dawson
The Higgs Hunter's Guide is a comprehensive resource on the Higgs boson and its role in particle physics. It provides an overview of the Standard Model, the Higgs mechanism, and the experimental and theoretical approaches to studying the Higgs boson. The book is written for practicing particle physicists, both theoretical and experimental, from advanced graduate students to active researchers. It covers the properties of the Standard Model Higgs boson, the experimental methods for detecting it, and the theoretical implications of its discovery. The book also discusses extensions of the Standard Model, such as supersymmetry, and the implications of these extensions for Higgs physics. The authors emphasize the importance of experimental information about the Higgs sector and the need for detailed and complete experimental data to determine the correct theory. The book includes a detailed discussion of the Higgs mechanism, the role of the Higgs boson in giving mass to particles, and the implications of the Higgs boson for the Standard Model and beyond. The authors also discuss the experimental challenges in detecting the Higgs boson and the importance of future experiments in this area. The book is an essential resource for anyone interested in the Higgs boson and its role in particle physics.The Higgs Hunter's Guide is a comprehensive resource on the Higgs boson and its role in particle physics.
