Reading List

These are a few texts on neutrino physics which you may find helpful. There is a wide range of levels between the texts and some are more advanced reference texts.

• The Neutrino, J.S. Allen, Princeton University Press (1958)

General particle physics texts

• Introduction to high energy physics, D.H. Perkins, Addison-Wesley (2nd and 3rd ed.), Cambridge University Press (4th ed.). There are many copies of this book between 2nd and 4th edition in the library. Emphasis on 'historical' physics/methods.
• The ideas of particle physics :an introduction for scientists (2nd Ed.), G.D. Coughlan and J.E. Dodd, Cambridge University Press, ISBN 0521385067(1991)
• Quarks and Leptons: An Introductory Course in Modern Particle Physics, F. Halzen and A.D. Martin, Wiley and Sons, ISBN 0-471-88741-2 (1984). Difficult to get hold of and more advanced than required for our course.
• Elements of Nuclear Physics, W.E. Burcham, Longman, ISBN 0-582-46027-1 (1985). There is a more recent book by Burcham and Jobes which may also be useful.
• Nuclear and Particle Physics, B.R.Martin, Wiley, ISBN 0-470-02532-8 (2006).

Particle Detectors

• Detectors for particle radiation (2nd ed.), K. Kleinknecht, Cambridge University Press, ISBN 0521640326 (1998). Note the library has a couple of copies of 1st ed. which will also be useful.
