Boyarkin (no credentials given) provides a textbook on the fundamental interactions of elementary particles for physics students. It covers the main directions of their unification, basic theoretical ideas and experiments, the general scheme of building up the theory of interacting fields, and principles of operation and designs of accelerators, neutrino neutrino (ntrē`nō) [Ital.,=little neutral (particle)], elementary particle with no electric charge and a very small mass emitted during the decay of certain other particles.  telescopes, and elementary particle detectors particle detector, in physics, device for detecting, measuring, and analyzing particles and other forms of radiation entering it. Such devices play an important role not only in basic research, as in the study of elementary particles, but also in numerous .
