Encyclopedia of Applied High Energy and Particle Physics

Edited by the 1989 Leibniz prizewinner Reinhard Stock, known for his research on the early universe plasma state, this is the latest reference on this rapidly changing field and has been completely rewritten with new contributions on cosmological and astrophysical questions.

Nota biograficzna:
Professor Reinhard Stock has worked for many years at the Nuclear Research Centr e CERN in Geneva, where he e.g. performed research on the early universe plasma state. In 1989 he was awarded the Leibniz Prize. Until now he was professor at the renowned High Energy and Particle Physics Department of the Goethe University of Frankfurt.
