The IPCC and the Politics of Writing Climate Change
(2024)
The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) is one of the most significant global environmental assessment bodies ever established, providing the most authoritative and influential reports on climate change ...
The Pinch Technique and its Applications to Non-Abelian Gauge Theories
(2011)
Non-Abelian gauge theories, such as quantum chromodynamics (QCD) or electroweak theory, are best studied with the aid of Green's functions that are gauge-invariant off-shell, but unlike for the photon in quantum electrodynamics, ...
Non-Perturbative Field Theory
(2010)
Providing a new perspective on quantum field theory, this book gives a pedagogical exposition of non-perturbative methods in relativistic quantum field theory and introduces the reader to modern research in theoretical ...
Introduction to Experimental Particle Physics
(1986)
This book brings together the most important topics in experimental particle physics in the late twentieth century to give a brief but balanced overview of the subject. The author begins by reviewing particle physics and ...
Classical Covariant Fields
(2002)
This 2002 book discusses the classical foundations of field theory, using the language of variational methods and covariance. It explores the limits of what can be achieved with purely classical notions, and shows how these ...
Hadrons and Quark–Gluon Plasma
(2002)
Before matter as we know it emerged, the universe was filled with the primordial state of hadronic matter called quark–gluon plasma. This hot soup of quarks and gluons is effectively an inescapable consequence of our current ...

Harms and Wrongs in Epistemic Practice
(2018)
How we engage in epistemic practice, including our methods of knowledge acquisition and transmission, the personal traits that help or hinder these activities, and the social institutions that facilitate or impede them, ...
Nonequilibrium Quantum Field Theory
(2009)
Bringing together the key ideas from nonequilibrium statistical mechanics and powerful methodology from quantum field theory, this 2008 book captures the essence of nonequilibrium quantum field theory. Beginning with the ...
