Description

قد كانت للاكتشافات والتجارب في مجال الفيزياء النووية الأثر البالغ في عالمنا المعاصر مما جعل هذا العلم بشكل خاص معروف للعامة، فالكل يعلم تطبيقاته المدمرة في مجال الأسلحة النووية، وأيضا تطبيقاته السلمية كمصدر هائل للطاقة، وكذا استخداماته المتعددة في مجالات الطب والزراعة والصناعة، لكن الوضع مختلف تماما بالنسبة لفيزياء الجسيمات الأولية، فلازال من الصعب لأي شخص لا يعمل في هذا التخصص، متابعة تطوره وتقدير أهميته وخاصة في عالمنا العربي لندرة الباحثين في هذا العلم الذي يتطلب إلماما تاما بالرياضيات المتقدمة ومتابعة جيدة لتطوراته المتلاحقة، ولذلك يهدف هذا الكتاب الي تعريف القاريء العربي غير المتخصص على علم فيزياء الجسيمات الأولية وأهم تطبيقاته، ونتمني . على أية حال . أن يكون لعالمنا العربي دورا هاما في المساهمة الإيجابية في تلك التطورات المتوقعة لكي يكون تعويضا مناسبا لغيابنا عن تلك الساحة خلال العقود الماضية

نبذة عن المؤلف

Shaaban (Said) Khalil (born November 13, 1966) is the founding director of the Center for Fundamental Physics at Zewail City of Science and Technology in Egypt, since 2012. He was the Director-General of Research at Zewail City of Science and Technology from 2015 to 2018. In 2014-2015, Khalil has been nominated by Prof. Ahmed Zewail as a tenured professor. This promotion was based on the evaluation of his research, teaching, and community service by six external professors chosen by professor Zewail himself. He was also the founding director of the Center for Theoretical Physics at the British University in Egypt from 2006 to 2012.

Professor Khalil is a High Energy Physicist in the Middle East. He works to understand new phenomena beyond the Standard Model of particle physics. He also has contributions in the theory of elementary particles, in particular Supersymmetry, and the interface between particle physics and cosmology.

Khalil received his PhD in Supersymmetry Phenomenology under the supervision of Prof. Antonio Masiero (University of Padua) in 1997. He has awarded the Fulbright fellowship at the Bartol Research Institute at the University of Delaware, from 1999 to 2004 he held positions as a research and postdoctoral fellow at the Physics Department in Madrid University, Sussex University and the Institute of Particle Physics Phenomenology at Durham University. His work enabled him to obtain the DSc degree in 2006 from Ain Shams University, refereed by the Royal Society in the UK. He received the Leverhulme visiting professorship at the Physics Department at the University of Southampton in 2012–2013; he has been a Visiting Professor there since then.

Khalil’s research has been widely recognized and he received many international awards, such as the Shoman Award for Arab Physicists in 2001, the International Award of Istanbul University in Science in 2004, and local awards such as Egypt Award for Excellence in Basic Science in 2006, and Misr El-Kheir Award for Most Cited Researchers in 2010. He organized and attended many international conferences; he is a member of the Advisory Committee of the DSU. In 2016, Khalil was invited to give a plenary talk on Probing Supersymmetry/BSM through Flavor Physics at the 38th International Conference on High Energy Physics (ICHEP2016), on August 3–10, 2016, in Chicago, U.S.
