Advanced Multipoles For Accelerator Magnets

The muon anomalous magnetic moment is one of the most precisely measured quantities in elementary particle physics and provides one of the most stringent tests of relativistic quantum field theory as a fundamental theoretical framework. This book reviews the present state of knowledge of the anomalous magnetic moment a=(g-2)/2 of the muon. In addition, quantum electrodynamics and electroweak and hadronic effects are reviewed.

Electroweak Physics at the LHC The text is not limited to electroweak physics in the strict sense, but also discusses the use of electroweak vector-bosons as tool in the study of other subjects in particle physics, such as determinations of the proton structure or the search for new exotic particles.

The book concludes with a chapter on the skyrmion phenomena in the cold atom context.This book summarizes some of the most exciting theoretical developments in the topological phenomena of skyrmions in noncentrosymmetric magnetic systems over recent decades. After presenting pedagogical backgrounds to the Berry phase and homotopy theory, the author systematically discusses skyrmions in the order of their development, from the Ginzburg-Landau theory, CP1 theory, Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert theory, and Monte Carlo numerical approaches. Modern topics, such as the skyrmion-electron interaction, skyrmion-magnon interaction, and various generation mechanisms of the skyrmion are examined with a focus on their general theoretical aspects.

The expert will find critical information that is so far only available in various slide presentation scattered over the world wide web. The basic principles of small strip- and pixel-detectors are presented and also the final large-scale applications. Evolution of Silicon Sensor Technology in Particle Physics The author here marshals his own first-hand experience in the development and also the realization of the DELPHI, CDF II and the CMS tracking detector.

Moreover, the effects of field inhomogeneity can be estimated with higher precision than before. The research findings are complemented with data obtained from the new superconducting beam guiding magnet models (SIS100) for the FAIR (Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research) project..
