In week 5 of theworkshop, i.e. from September 24 to 28, 2007, we shall have a series of lectures on LHC physics.
The roster of the lectures follows below:

MonteCarlo (2 hrs) Krauss

"In the first half I will review basic principles of Monte Carlo event generation. In the second half I will concentrate on the inclusion of
higher order corrections into the event generators, and, time permitting, I will briefly discuss the underlying event."

 

 

HO corrections (2 hrs) Campbell

"These lectures will explore the motivation for, and calculation of, higher order corrections in the Standard Model and beyond.
After a review of basic techniques and results, I will discuss some recent state-of-the-art calculations. The lectures will conclude
with a survey of available tools and applications to collider phenomenology. "

 

 

twistors (2 hrs) Roiban

abstract will appear shortly

 

 

BSM (2 hrs) Giudice

``I will review the prospects for the discovery of the electroweak-breaking sector at the LHC and the motivations for searches of
new theories beyond the Standard Model.''

 

 

Higgs searches (3 hr) Oleari

``In the first half of the lectures, I will review briefly the basics of the Standard Model and in particular of the electroweak sector. I will
introduce the mechanism of spontaneous symmetry breaking and its consequences.
In the second half, I will review the physics of the Higgs boson at the LHC and its discovery channels.''

 

Accelerator physics (2 hrs) Scandale

``The main aspects of the particle dynamics in a circular accelerator are reviewed and some of the technological breakthrough recalled.
The LHC project is used as an example to show the up-to-date state of the art.''

 

Overview of detectors (3 hrs) Dissertori (CMS)

``In these lectures I will give an overview of the design, construction and current status of the LHC detectors, with emphasis on the two
general-purpose experiments ATLAS and CMS. I will illustrate how the experimental challenges at LHC will be met by these large-scale
detector systems.''

 

DAQ & trigger (2 hrs) Schwick (CMS)

``The lectures introduce state of the art concepts and technologies used in design and implementation of Trigger and Data Aquisistion systems.
The fours LHC experiments Alice Atlas CMS and LHC are analyzed with respect to their requirements. Common system aspects for the four
experiments are worked out as well as the specific solutions to detector specific requirements.''
