From superstring theory to models with extra dimensions to dark
matter and dark energy, a range of theoretically stimulating ideas
have evolved for physics beyond the standard model. These

CP violation. The next section
focuses on grand unified theories and supersymmetry. The book then
discusses the general theory of relativity, higher dimensional
theories of gravity, and superstring theory. It also introduces
various novel ideas and models with extra dimensions and low-scale
gravity. The last part of the book deals with astroparticle
physics. After an introduction to cosmology, it covers several
specialized topics, including baryogenesis, dark matter, dark
energy, and brane cosmology.

With numerous equations and detailed references, this lucid book
explores the new physics beyond the standard model, showing that
particle and astroparticle physics will together reveal unique
insights in the next era of physics.
