Details 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.
