Quantum Chromodynamics Basics (English Version)

Author: T.Muta

Publication Date: 2003-01-01
Features: It is to my surprise that the basis of quantum chromodynamics (QCD) has been made firmer and firmer in its applicability in both perturbative as well as nonperturbative regimes since the first edition of this book was prepared in 1986. While much theoretical progress has been made in perturbative QCD, the basic structure of its formulation has remained unchanged, and so the book is still of value for researchers who wish to learn fundamental items of perturbative QCD.
