Introduction -- Particles of the "standard model" -- Particle detectors -- Particle identification -- Particle accelerators and colliders -- General principles of big detectors -- 4th concept detector -- The sociology of collaborations -- Appendix A: Detectors and instrumentation in 1960 -- Appendix B: Detector design strategies -- Appendix C: Glossary. Starting from our current understanding of the topic, this advanced textbook describes experimental detectors and their capabilities in measuring detectable stable particles, before explaining the benefits of a new powerful collider detector that combines new technologies --Source other than Library of Congress.
