Hadron Collider School - HASCO 2018
The main objectives of the hadron collider physics school (HASCO) are introductory topics in elementary
particle physics, in particular in hadron collider physics as relevant for research at the Large Hadron
Collider (LHC). This includes lectures and tutorials on theoretical foundations of the Standard Model of
elementary particle physics as well as experimental techniques to test it. Furthermore, a focus is placed
on statistical data analysis and an introduction to the software package ROOT. In addition, students will
have the opportunity to discuss state of the art measurements and results with senior scientists in the
field.
The target group are Bachelor and Master students, i.e. mainly beginners in the field. The main activities are lectures, tutorials, and student
seminars. These are complemented by excursions, and sport activities.
The learning outcome is better and more compatible theoretical knowledge of the fundamentals of elementary particle physics, but more
importantly also hands-on experience with widely used software tools, statistics data analysis and experimental measurement techniques. The
outputs are software programs, group presentations, and short summary reports. The academic achievements will be credited with ECTS points.
The school will take place at the Georg-August-Universtät Göttingen from 22. - 27. July 2018.
