Release Notes
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
These notes are designed as a guide-line for a course in Elementary Particle
Physics for undergraduate students. The purpose is providing a rigorous and
self-contained presentation of the theoretical framework and of the
phenomenological aspects of the physics of interactions among fundamental
constituents of matter.

The first part of the volume is devoted to the description of scattering
processes in the context of relativistic quantum field theory. The use of the
semi-classical approximation allows us to illustrate the relevant computation
techniques in a reasonably small amount of space. Our approach to relativistic
processes is original in many respects.

The second part contains a detailed description of the construction of the
standard model of electroweak interactions, with special attention to the
mechanism of particle mass generation. The extension of the standard model to
include neutrino masses is also described.

We have included a number of detailed computations of cross sections and decay
rates of pedagogical and phenomenological relevance.
