Neutrino Interactions With Electrons and Protons: An Account of an Experimental Program in Particle Physics in the 1980s (Key Papers in Physics)

This book contains 13 papers that reflect the development of neutrino interactions with the electrons and protons in a fixed-target experiment that, beginning in 1980, grew out of the formal collaboration in high energy physics between Japanese and American institutions. These experiments were crucial to the merger of quantum electrodynamics and quantum weak dynamics, the foundation of electroweak theory today. This collection of papers is intended for researchers and graduate students in high energy physics, and for physics historians.
