Publisher's Synopsis
Modern analysis of HEP data needs advanced statistical tools to separate signal from background. Statistical Analysis Techniques in Particle will be of interest to almost every high energy physicist, and, due to its coverage, suitable for students. In first chapter, after a short introduction to particle physics and to the related theoretical framework, we will review some of the computing techniques that have been developed to make these calculations automatic. In second chapter, we study the correlation of the ground state of an N-particle Moshinsky model by computing the Shannon entropy in both position and momentum spaces. In third chapter, all energy in the universe, here called energy quanta, originates from a singularity at the centre of the universe. The electron and the atom are completely passive; they absorb energy quanta by means of forced damped oscillators and the absorbed energy quanta are then re-emitted. The aim of fourth chapter is to highlight the common aspects between Symmetry in Physics and the Relativity Theory, particularly Special Relativity. After a brief historical introduction, emphasis is put on the physical foundations of Relativity Theory and its essential role in the clarification of many issues related to fundamental symmetries. Fifth chapter proposes on the origin of particles and the objective of sixth chapter is to uncover the common origin for both mass and force in the universe along with their evolutionary path in the discipline of Newtonian physics. In seventh chapter, we extend the calculation to present the single particle potentials for the proton and neutron using modern nucleon-nucleon (NN) potentials in the framework of (BHFA). The primary objective of eighth chapter is to uncover the real mechanic of dark matter, big bang and evolution process of the universe in the discipline of basic physics. In ninth chapter, the point kinetics equations are solved numerically using the stiffness confinement method (SCM). The aim of eleventh chapter is to investigate the effect of mixed convection heat and mass transfer on pulsatile flow of a non-Newtonian fluid which is obeying the rheological equation of state due to Ree-Eyring's stress-strain relation. Twelfth chapter presents an assessment of natural radioactivity and associated radiation hazards in topsoil of savar industrial area, Dhaka, Bangladesh. Fourteenth chapter describes the techniques used by Particle Physicists for dealing with statistical problems, and also some of the open statistical questions.
