书籍简介

本书阐述了暗物质物理学的各个方面。

本书对现代物理学中引人入胜的课题之一——暗物质物理学——进行了精辟而独立的介绍，阐述了天体物理学中暗物质存在的证据、关于暗物质的各种理论，以及检验这些理论的前沿实验和观测方法。本书概述了天体物理现象，从旋转曲线到引力透镜和宇宙结构形成。随后，本书对三大主要理论进行了概述，讨论了弱相互作用大质量粒子（WIMP）、轴子和原初黑洞。本书解释了每种理论的局限性，例如直接探测和间接天体物理限制，并通过实践练习和补充材料帮助学生建立物理直觉。

一本论述弱相互作用重粒子（WIMP）、轴子和原初黑洞的著作

均衡地涵盖了来自天体物理学、粒子物理学和实验物理学的暗物质证据、理论和检验

书中穿插了原创习题和简短测验

并附有 Jupyter Notebook，提供示例计算和关键结果及图表的复现方法

本书是高年级本科生和研究生的理想教材，也是研究人员的参考书

A complete treatment of all aspects of dark matter physics

This book provides an incisive, self-contained introduction to one of the most intriguing subjects in modern physics, presenting the evidence we have from astrophysics for the existence of dark matter, the theories for what it could be, and the cutting-edge experimental and observational methods for testing them. It begins with a survey of the astrophysical phenomena, from rotation curves to lensing and cosmological structure formation. It goes on to offer the most comprehensive overview available of all three major theories, discussing weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs), axions, and primordial black holes. The book explains the constraints on each theory, such as direct detection and indirect astrophysical limits, and enables students to build physical intuition using hands-on exercises and supplemental material.

The only book to treat extensively WIMPs, axions, and primordial black holes

Provides balanced coverage of the evidence, theory, and testing for dark matter from astrophysics, particle physics, and experimental physics

Includes original problems and short quizzes throughout

Accompanied by Jupyter notebooks that give sample calculations and methods to reproduce key results and graphs

An ideal textbook for advanced undergraduate and graduate students and an essential reference for researchers
