Fundamental particles that constitute matter and radiation are studied in the domain of particle physics. Particle interaction and behavior is governed by the laws of quantum mechanics and described by a quantum field theory model called the Standard Model. Particle interactions can be in the form of strong, weak and electromagnetic interactions. Such interactions are mediated by the gauge bosons. Research in modern particle physics focuses on subatomic particles such as electrons, neutrons and protons as well as a wide range of exotic particles. This book unfolds the innovative aspects of particle physics which will be crucial for the progress of this field in the future. It aims to present researches that have transformed this discipline and aided its advancement. Particle physicists, phenomenologists, lattice theorists, researchers and students involved in this area of study will benefit alike from this book.
