  • Description

    Frank Close’s Particle Physics: A Very Short Introduction, published by Oxford University Press, is a compelling introduction to the fundamental particles that make up our universe. The author takes us on a journey into the atom to study known particles like electrons, quarks, and the ghostly neutrino. The book concludes by delving into the possibility of antimatter, the possible number of dimensions that might be there in the universe, and also, what the next 50 years of research in this area might reveal.

    Great for general knowledge and schoolwork.

    This is an excellent pocket-book on radioactivity and nuclear physics by Frank Close.
    Barely over 150 pages, the matter in this book helped clear several concepts related to the given topics which are a part of the Class 12 physics course, mind you, it would be handy to have pre-requisite knowledge about the structure of the atom, nucleus and electrostatic forces which make up the world we see.
