Review of particle physics
2006
This biennial Review summarizes much of
particle physics. Using data from previous editions, plus 2158 new measurements from 551 papers, we list, evaluate, and average measured properties of
gauge bosons, leptons, quarks, mesons, and baryons. We also summarize searches for hypothetical particles such as Higgs bosons, heavy neutrinos, and supersymmetric particles. All the particle properties and search limits are listed in Summary Tables. We also give numerous tables, figures, formulae, and reviews of topics such as the Standard Model,
particle detectors,
probability, and
statistics. Among the 108 reviews are many that are new or heavily revised including those on neutrino mass, mixing, and oscillations, QCD,
top quark, CKM quark-mixing matrix, V-ud & V-us, V-cb & V-ub,
fragmentation functions,
particle detectorsfor accelerator and non-
accelerator physics,
magnetic monopoles, cosmological parameters, and
big bangcosmology.
