The first three colliders -- AdA in Italy, CBX in the US, and VEP-1 in the then Soviet Union -- came to operation about 50 years ago in the mid-1960s. A number of other colliders followed.Over the past decades, colliders defined the energy frontier in particle physics. Different types of colliers -- proton-proton, proton-antiproton, electron-positron, electron-proton, electron-ion and ion-ion colliders -- have played complementary roles in fully mapping out the constituents and forces in the Standard Model (SM). We are now at a point where all predicted SM constituents of matter and forces have been found, and all the latest ones were found at colliders. Colliders also play a critical role in advancing beam physics, accelerator research and technology development. It is timely that RAST Volume 7 is dedicated to Colliders.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Atlantic Books","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46495840665751,"sku":"9789814651486","price":11227.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9789814651486.webp?v=1769186801","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/reviews-of-accelerator-science-and-technology-volume-7-colliders-9789814651486","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
