1. Catalog Description An introduction to the standard model of particle physics. The theories of quantum electrodynamics and quantum chromodynamics are developed and used to understand the subatomic world. Quantum field theory is applied to lepton and photon scattering, hadrons, and mesons. The quark model, color gauge, Isospin and SU(3) are developed before introduction of the electroweak gauge theory and symmetry breaking. 2. Statement of Purpose This course serves as an introduction to the standard model of nuclear and particle physics for students interested in pursuing degrees in nuclear physics, particle physics, or nuclear engineering. A thorough foundation in QED, QCD, and gauge field theory is imparted to the student which may be applied across any discipline involving the application of quantum mechanics. 3. Course Content Definition of fermion and boson properties, workings of accelerators and detectors, Invariance principles and conservation laws. The standard model is then built up from hadron-hadron interactions, static quark models, electromagnetic interactions, and strangeness. QCD is introduced via quark-quark interactions and the parton model. For students planning on taking 410E a discussion of unification and SU(5) will end the semester.

MASTER SYLLABUS PHYS410C
4. Course Objectives By the end of the semester students will be able to; • explain the quark constituents of matter, • read current research papers in the discipline, • draw from knowledge of quantum mechanics and scattering to describe current experiments in particle physics • draw parallels from different resources and topics to develop their own ideas which in turn can be defended in a written or oral format. 5. Student Assessment Criteria 5.1. Homework. Problems from the textbook and other resources will be assigned. This homework will be discussed and evaluated. 5.2. Paper. Students are required to write one or two literature research papers of ten to twenty pages length. These papers are written in a scientific publication format. The topics are tailored to the individual student. 5.3. Final Exam. The final exam will be given only during the assigned hours. There will be no exceptions to this time, other than the college rescheduling the time. The exam will be comprehensive.
