"Faszinierende Teilchenphysik" ("faszinating particle physics"): A book on theories, experiments and methods addressed to a general public — Philip Bechtle1, Florian Bernlochner1, Herbi Dreiner1, •Christoph Hanhart2, Josef Jochum3, Jörg Pretz2,4, and Kristin Riebe5 — 1Universität Bonn — 2Forschungszentrum Jülich — 3Universität Tübingen — 4RWTH Aachen — 5AIP Potsdam
The book *Faszinierende Teilchenphysik (in German - the English version, *Fascinating particle physics" is in preparation) was recently published. The book is structured in 150 largely self-contained double-pages sorted into 12 chapters. It is addressed at the interested general public and contains an overview over various aspects of particle, hadron and nuclear physics, like an in depth introduction to the Standard Model, an introduction to theoretical and experimental methods in particle and hadron physics, including what it takes to extract valuable information from data, an overview of spin offs that emerged from this kind of fundamental science as well as some discussions on more philosophical implications related to the subject. In the talk I will present how we settled on the content of the book, present some representative examples and mention some challenges we faced in the preparation of the book.
