Teilchenphysik an Collidern und im Hochenergie-Universum

What it is about

You receive an introduction to experimental particle physics at very high-energy accelerators. You will learn the construction and technology of modern colliders as well as their detector systems, understand the measurement and interaction of particles with matter, and be able to classify current results of the Standard Model as well as strategies for searching for new physics.

What you will be able to do

• Understand concepts of modern accelerators and accelerator experiments
• Describe detection of particles with detectors and interaction with matter
• Discuss physics of the Standard Model and current experimental results
• Describe motivation and experimental strategies for physics beyond the Standard Model
