Lecture Information:

B1 2007-2008 syllabus from the handbook here

Oxford Physics teaching page should have all information about the courses, such as: Oxford Exam Papers.

Text book and further suggested books:

See Lecturer's web page above.

A.P. French's "Special Relativity" MIT Int. Physics Series is a very good book.

Halzen & Martin's Quarks & Leptons uses higer level formalism for the level of this course, but is really a well-written one (with solved examples as well!).

Griffiths' Introduction of elementary particles is one of the classics. It has solved rel. kinematic problems, as well as scattering calculations from Feynman Diagrams. Mind you: the book may not be up to date in its contents
