Looking for a book with an Overview of Nuclear and Particle Physics

AI Thread Summary
For those pursuing a PhD in Nuclear and Particle Physics and seeking a broader understanding beyond specific research papers, several recommended textbooks provide comprehensive overviews. Key introductory texts include "Nuclear and Particle Physics" by Martin, "Introduction to Nuclear and Particle Physics" by Das and Ferbel, and "Subatomic Physics" by Henley and Garcia. For more advanced study, "Nuclei and Particles" by Segre and "Theoretical Nuclear and Subnuclear Physics" by Walecka are suggested. These resources aim to enhance general knowledge, which is crucial for defense preparation in the field.

Hi,

I am doing my PHD in Nuclear/Particle Physics and I am getting all of the information I am using from papers, which are very specific. I feel like I am lacking general knowledge, which is likely to be tested in the defense. Do you know any book where I can get a better overview on Nuclear and Particle Physics?

Thank you!

Those are not about the nuclear.

In addition to Povh et al that @vanhees71 mentioned, there are also:
Martin, Nuclear and Particle Physics
Williams, Nuclear and Particle Physics
Das and Ferbel, Introduction to Nuclear and Particle Physics
Henley and Garcia, Subatomic Physics
Burcham and Jobes, Nuclear and Particle Physics
Blin-Stoyle, Nuclear and Particle Physics

The above are all introductions, while more advanced are:
Segre, Nuclei and Particles
Walecka, Theoretical Nuclear and Subnuclear Physics
 
I'm looking at a book called python crash course for beginners (eric mathes), does anyone have experience of using this book or any other book that you would recommend for learning python if not that, is there a specific course you'd suggest that isn't in book form? I'm completely new to programming if it helps. So i need a gameplan for learning it quite quickly for my undergrad studies
