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.''
