520			_aThis book gives a concise, accessible introduction to the basic concepts and experimental evidence of particle physics aimed at scientists and advanced students. Dodd explains the classification of particles, their quantum numbers, masses and lifetimes, and the role of symmetry principles in organizing observed states. The book covers scattering and decay kinematics and introduces how experiments detect and measure particle properties. Emphasis is put on phenomenology — connecting experimental results to the conceptual framework behind the Standard Model — with illustrations and worked examples that make the material approachable. Overall it serves as a first bridge between descriptive/experimental particle physics and the more formal quantum-field-theory treatments.
