Lectures on the ElectroWeak Interactions

Elementary particle physics is the quadrant of nature whose laws can be written in a few lines with absolute precision and the greatest empirical adequacy. Thus these lectures aim at introducing students and interested readers to the entire subject in a compact way.

Table des matières

1. The Fermi theory of neutron decay.- 2. The Lagrangian of the Standard Model, including neutrino masses.- 3. The main predictions of the Standard Model.- 4. Precision tests.- 5. Flavour Physics.- 6. CP violation.- 7. Basics of neutrino physics.- 8. Neutrino oscillations.- 9. The naturalness problem of the Fermi scale.- 10. The main drawback of the Standard Model.- 11. Appendices.
