Self-instruction in high energy physics

Self-similar interpolation in high-energy physics

A method is suggested for interpolating between small-variable and large-variable asymptotic expansions. The method is based on self-similar approximation theory resulting in self-similar root approximants. The latter are more general than the twosided Padé approximants and modified Padé approximants, including these as particular cases. Being more general, the self-similar root approximants gu...

Publishing in High - Energy Physics :

The goal of Open Access (OA) is to grant anyone, anywhere and anytime free access to the results of scientific research. The High-Energy Physics (HEP) community has pioneered OA with its “pre-print culture”: the mass mailing, first, and the online posting, later, of preliminary versions of its articles. After almost half a century of widespread dissemination of pre-prints, the time is ripe for ...

Perspectives in High-energy Physics

A personal view of current prospectives in particle physics is presented, inspired by the contributions to this meeting. Particular emphasis is laid in precision tests of the Standard Model and the search for the Higgs boson, on probes of CP violation, on speculations about possible physics beyond the Standard Model, on neutrino masses and oscillations, on the quest for supersymmetry, on opport...

High Energy Physics,horizons*

The previous sessions have borne witness to the fact &at high energy accelerator and storage ring technology is a.subject of continuing vitality. Nothing dramatizes this more convincingly than the chart (Fig. 1) which shows the growth in energy of the world’s accelerators in time. If one includes in this chart the equivalent laboratory energy of existing and projected colliding beam storage rin...
