Frontiers of particle beam physics

Frontiers in Nuclear Physics

These are the proceedings of the symposium on “Frontiers in Nuclear Physics” held at the Physikzentrum Bad Honnef from June 18 to 20, 2009. The workshop concentrated on recent advances in the understanding of the nuclear forces, fewnucleon systems and related topics. Included are a short contribution per talk. ∗ This symposium was supported in parts by funds provided from the Helmholtz Associat...

Particle physics.

The various groups of the Physik-Institut in the elds of particle physics are using for their experiments external accelerators at the large international research institutions PSI (Villigen), CERN (Genf), DESY (Hamburg) and Brookhaven. Further activities in the eld of particle physics which are connected to questions of astropar-ticlephysics and cosmology do not require accelerators or they ar...

Exploring New Physics Frontiers Through Numerical Relativity

The demand to obtain answers to highly complex problems within strong-field gravity has been met with significant progress in the numerical solution of Einstein's equations - along with some spectacular results - in various setups. We review techniques for solving Einstein's equations in generic spacetimes, focusing on fully nonlinear evolutions but also on how to benchmark those results with p...

Review of Particle Physics.

This biennial Review summarizes much of particle physics. Using data from previous editions, plus 2158 new measurements from 551 papers, we list, evaluate, and average measured properties of gauge bosons, leptons, quarks, mesons, and baryons. We also summarize searches for hypothetical particles such as Higgs bosons, heavy neutrinos, and supersymmetric particles. All the particle properties and...
