    Description

    Axions are peculiar hypothetical particles that could both solve the CP problem of quantum chromodynamics and at the same time account for the dark matter of the universe. Based on a series of lectures by world experts in this field held at CERN (Geneva), this volume provides a pedagogical introduction to the theory, cosmology and astrophysics of these fascinating particles and gives an up-to-date account of the status and prospect of ongoing and planned experimental searches.

    Editorial Reviews: Review From the reviews:”The motivation of this book was to provide a starting point for graduate students and senior researchers in the field of axions and axion-like particles. The book gives a broad overview on the theoretical reason of axions and axion-like particles, their implication for cosmology and astrophysics, their role as a well-known dark-matter candidate, and experimental axion searches.” (Claudia-Veronika Meister, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1157, 2009) From the Back Cover Axions are peculiar hypothetical particles that could both solve the CP problem of quantum chromodynamics and at the same time account for the dark matter of the universe. Based on a series of lectures by world experts in this field held at CERN (Geneva), this volume provides a pedagogical introduction to the theory, cosmology and astrophysics of these fascinating particles and gives an up-to-date account of the status and prospect of ongoing and planned experimental searches. Learners and practitioners of astroparticle physics will find in this book both a concise introduction and a current reference work to a showcase topic that connects the “inner space” of the elementary particle world with the “outer space” of the universe at large.

    Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:

    ⭐It is a well thought review on axions. As many lecture notes it is a contribution from many scientists working on this topic from many perspectives. It’s a good introductory course.

    ⭐Excellent book and great seller.
