N2  - This book is a graduate-level introduction that connects the experimental phenomenology of elementary particles with the theoretical structures used to describe them. The text surveys particle classification, properties (masses, lifetimes, quantum numbers), and the role of symmetries and conservation laws in organizing observed states. It discusses scattering theory, decay processes, and the key experimental methods used in high-energy physics to discover and measure particles. The book presents the basic elements of the Standard Model phenomenology and describes common phenomenological models and approximations used in analyzing experiments. With a mix of conceptual explanation and worked examples, it is intended for advanced undergraduate or beginning graduate students who want a physics-focused bridge between experiments and theoretical descriptions.
