Abstract
Gauge Theory of Weak Interactions treats the unification of electromagnetic and weak interactions, and considers related phenomena. First, the theory of beta decay is presented, followed by a discussion of parity violation, clarifying the importance of symmetries. After all necessary mathematical tools have been developed, the concept of a gauge theory is introduced. The standard model of weak interactions is thoroughly discussed as well as current problems such as the solar-neutrino problem. Finally, a glimpse is given of a possible Grand Unified Theory. Numerous worked examples and problems make this a unique text for an advanced course on gauge theories in particle physics.
