    PARTICLE PHYSICS AND COSMOLOGY
    The Quest for Physics Beyond the Standard Model(s)(TASI 2002)
    Boulder, Colorado, USA, 2 – 28 June 2002

    edited by Howard E Haber (University of California, Santa Cruz, USA) & Ann E Nelson (University of Washington, USA)

    This book contains the lecture courses conducted at the School of the Theoretical Advanced Study Institute (TASI, Colorado, USA) on Elementary Particle Physics in 2002. In this School, three series of lectures are presented in parallel in the area of phenomenology, TeV-scale physics, and astroparticles physics. The phenomenology lecture series covered a broad spectrum of standard research techniques used to interpret present day and future collider data. The TeV-scale physics lecture series focused on modern speculations about physics beyond the Standard Model, with an emphasis on supersymmetry and extra-dimensional theories. The lecture series on astroparticle physics treated recent developments in theories of dark matter and dark energy, the cosmic microwave background, and prospects for the upcoming era of gravitational wave astronomy.
