Experimental techniques in particle physics  

Description

A review is given on modern particle detector technologies. Challenges and techniques regarding signal readout and data aggregation are discussed. Next, we will focus on reconstruction of collected data, for example reconstruction of tracks of charged particles and other high-level physics objects. Beyond that, we elaborate on techniques of data analysis and interpretion. The course focuses on particle physics experiments eg. around the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN. GENERAL COMPETENCES The student has acquired in-depth knowledge on the aggregation, reconstruction, and analysis of data with modern particle-detection techniques at particle-physics experiments. Therefore, the student will be equipped with tools to perform research at for example particle accelerators.
