Thank you! I used that book. It is good indeed, but he doesn't proves anything. All the equations and Feynman rules are just given (maybe a little bit explained at the end). But this is not what I want.dextercioby said:D.J. Griffiths' text is the one I would recommend, 2nd edition of 2008 to be a little more up to date.
Based on this, it appears that what you want is a book on quantum field theory. I think books labeled "particle physics" tend to be more about phenomenology than about a rigorous presentation of the theory.Silviu said:Thank you! I used that book.

Particle physics is a branch of physics that studies the fundamental building blocks of matter and the forces that govern their interactions. These building blocks, known as particles, range from tiny subatomic particles like quarks and electrons to larger particles like protons and neutrons.
This introductory book on particle physics is intended for anyone with a basic understanding of physics and mathematics. It is suitable for high school and college students, as well as those interested in learning about the field of particle physics.
This book covers key concepts such as the Standard Model of particle physics, the four fundamental forces (gravity, electromagnetism, strong and weak nuclear forces), particle accelerators, and the discovery of new particles.
Yes, this book is regularly updated to include the latest research and discoveries in the field of particle physics. It also includes discussions on current topics and ongoing research in the field.
Yes, this book can be used as a textbook for an introductory course on particle physics. It provides a comprehensive overview of the subject and includes exercises and problems for students to practice and deepen their understanding.
