This two-volume set contains the invited and contributed papers from the 1994 'Rochester' Conference on High Energy Physics, held 20-27 July 1994 in Glasgow, Scotland. This most prestigious of the international conferences on elementary particle physics brought together over 1000 researchers in the field from leading universities and research centres in 47 countries throughout the world. The volumes contain over 250 contributed papers from the parallel sessions of the conference giving details of latest research results in all areas of the subject. These and other recent results were collected and reviewed by the speakers in the 24 plenary sessions, whose talks were subsequently written up in a definitive way and assembled here. These reviews give a comprehensive and state-of-the-art coverage of the entire field in 1994. Important topics include the latest experimental results from electron-proton collisions at HERA and electron-positron collisions at CERN. Of special interest is the first concrete experimental evidence for the 'top' quark, found in proton-proton collisions at Fermilab. This quark completes the set of six that are predicted by the Standard Model, and its confirmation will mark a decisive moment in the history of physics. This book is an essential reference for libraries and researchers in high energy physics, nuclear physics, astrophysics and mathematical physics.
