Introduction to Elementary Particles

Elementary particle physics addresses the question. " What is matter made of? " on the most fundamental level-which is to say. on the smallest scale of size. It's a remarkable fact that matter at the subatomic level consists of tiny chunks, with vast empty spaces in between. Even more remarkable, these tiny chunks come in a small number of different types (electrons, protons, neutrons, pi me-so...

Monte Carlo for Statistical Physics: An Elementary Introduction

A brief introduction to the technique of Monte Carlo for simulation of statistical physics systems is presented. Ising spin model is taken as an example. The topics covered include Metropolis algorithm, phase transition, finite size scaling, critical slowing down and cluster algorithms. A macroscopic system consists of a very large number of microscopic constituents. A gas contained in a volume...

Introduction to I0: Elementary Embeddings

The added assumption for the critical point is necessary to put I0 in the same branch of the other rank-into-rank axioms. If j witness I0, in fact, j Vλ+1 witness I1, and so λ is the supremum of the critical sequence. Note that if I0 is true, then L(Vλ+1) 2 AC, because otherwise we could use Kunen’s Theroem to prove that there is no elementary embedding. One of the big peculiarities of I0 is it...
