OSTI ID:5848189

This textbook is intended for graduate-level courses for students specializing in the study of matter and energy at the extremes of high energy and small distance. It is organized into these subject areas: electromagnetic interactions of the leptons; electromagnetic form factors of the hadrons; inelastic electron-proton scattering; historical development of weak interation physics; the V-A current-current interaction theory; strangeness-changing and charm-changing weak interactions; K/sup 0/ mesons; high energy neutrino interactions; dispersion relations; the strong interaction coupling constant; classification of hadrons; SU-2 and SU-3; the octet in SU-3; SU-3 applications and SU-4; the quark model; SU-6 and symmetrization; quark model applications; and Regge poles.
