This 2012 volume, now OA, is dedicated to high energy quantum chromodynamics including parton saturation and the color glass condensate.

The first book entirely dedicated to high energy QCD including parton saturation and CGC, covering the last several decades of development.

This is a new text on Quantum Chromodynamics, the theory of the strong force between quarks, the fundamental building blocks of nuclear matter. Although the focus is on experiments, the text also includes anextensive theoretical introduction to the field as well as many exercises with solutions explained in detail.

First book entirely dedicated to high energy QCD including parton saturation and CGC, covering the last several decades of development.

Quantum Chromodynamics is a thorough introduction for students in theoretical physics and scientists needing a reference and exercise book in this field. The book presents the necessary mathematical tools together with many examples and worked problems. In introductory chapters the reader becomes familiar with the hadron spectrum, while the SU(N) symmetry groups and the relativistic field theory are briefly recapitulated; then a discussion of scalar quantum electrodynamics and scattering reactions follow before gauge quark-quark interactions, perturbational QCD, renormalization groups, and tests of pertubational QCD are all treated in detail. Chapters on non-perturbational QCD and quasi-phenomenological applications conclude the text.

This title provides an in-depth introduction to the particle physics of current and future experiments at particle accelerators. The text provides the reader with an overview of practically all aspects of the strong interaction necessary to understand and appreciate modern particle phenomenology at the energy frontier.

This 1997 volume, reissued as OA, describes the Pomeron, an object of crucial importance in very high energy particle physics.
