SUMMARY

The discussion centers on finding a comprehensive textbook on Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD), specifically one that details the derivation of DGLAP evolution equations. Participants recommend "Foundations of Quantum Chromodynamics" by T. Muta and "The Theory of Quark and Gluon Interactions" by F. J. Yndurain as suitable resources. The emphasis is on books that provide step-by-step derivations of evolution equations using Feynman rules, which are crucial for understanding QCD.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD)
  • Familiarity with DGLAP evolution equations
  • Knowledge of Feynman rules
  • Basic principles of particle physics
NEXT STEPS
  • Research detailed derivations of DGLAP evolution equations
  • Explore advanced textbooks on Quantum Chromodynamics
  • Study Feynman diagrams and their applications in particle physics
  • Investigate supplementary resources on quark and gluon interactions
USEFUL FOR

Students and researchers in theoretical physics, particularly those focusing on Quantum Chromodynamics and particle interactions.

Hi, everyone,
I am now looking for a good textbook on QCD.
I am especially want to learn the derivation of DGLAP evolution equations.
So, it will be better if the book contains the detailed derivation of evolution equations step by step for all the diagrams using Feynman rules.
I looked through the book by Walter Greiner. Are there any better books to recommend?
Best regards!
