Quantum Principles and Particles
by Walter Wilcox
Publisher: Baylor University 1992
Description:
This is a two semester, 550 page introductory text, plus a 10 page index. It includes material which overlaps with particle physics, including a number of interesting models as well as material on identical particles. The ideas of quantum mechanics are introduced via "Process Diagrams", which are filter/transition devices which help students visualize the states involved and to make transparent the means of computing the amplitudes for certain quantum mechanical processes.

Elementary Particles in Physics
by S. Gasiorowicz, P. Langacker - University of Pennsylvania
Elementary-particle physics deals with the fundamental constituents of matter and their interactions. In this comprehensive article we shall attempt to sketch the outlines of the standard model and its possible extensions.

Lattice Perturbation Theory
by Stefano Capitani - arXiv.org
In this review we explain the main methods and techniques of lattice perturbation theory, focusing on the cases of Wilson and Ginsparg-Wilson fermions. We will illustrate, among other, the peculiarities of perturbative techniques on the lattice ...

Anisotropic Hydrodynamics
by Michael Strickland - arXiv
I review the material presented in three introductory lectures. I review the derivation of ideal and second-order viscous hydrodynamics from kinetic theory. I then show how to extend the methods used to a system that can be highly anisotropic...
