This book describes the computational methods most frequently used to deal with the interaction of charged particles, notably electrons, with condensed matter. Both elastic and inelastic scattering phenomena are discussed, and methods for calculating the relevant cross sections are explained in a rigorous but simple way. [...]

This book provides an introduction of some of the technology and techniques of modern particle physics. Each chapter is a deep dive into the relevant subject, which includes silicon pixel detectors, plastic scintillator in a high radiation environment, Cerenkov detectors, particle jet identification, noble gas neutrino detectors, and machine learning. [...]

The open access movement, which was set in motion at the latest by the Berlin Declaration in 2003, went hand in hand with the goal of transforming the scholarly publishing system to open access to research results by default. However, this complete switch to open access— the “open access transformation”—which has also been formulated as a goal in many strategy papers, has not yet been achieved. [...]

Nach ihrer Erschaffung genießt Nelly, das astrophysikalische Neutrino, alles, was sie im Universum sieht. Doch der Weltraum kann einsam sein [...]
