Beskrivning

The book is designed for students of undergraduate programs in physics, mathematics, chemistry, and engineering who will deal with modern physics, as they will benefit from an approach in which the aspects of classical mechanics are introduced in a propaedeutic approach towards relativistic physics and quantum mechanics.

Mer om författaren

Maurizio Spurio’s research activity is mainly in astroparticle physics using neutrinos and cosmic rays in a multimessenger approach. He has published more than 230 papers in referred journals. Since 2014, he has served as the deputy spokesman of the ANTARES experiment, an international collaboration for neutrino astrophysics. The detector was in operation from 2008 to 2022 and located in the Mediterranean Sea. At present, he is participating in the activities for the realization of the KM3NeT neutrino telescope. Previously, he was a member of the MACRO collaboration at the Gran Sasso Labs and contributed significantly to the first studies of atmospheric neutrino oscillations. He contributed to develop a nuclear track detector, used for physics application and to search for magnetic monopoles, also at LHC. Finally, since 2022, he has been a member of the Einstein Telescope Collaboration, for the construction of a new generation of gravitational wave interferometer.
