Vorlesungsbeschreibung
The Course (given in English) is an introduction to Elementary Particle Physics. Focus is given to the experimental features, with phenomenological and theoretical considerations. After a cronological introduction, the building of the Standard Model of Particles and Interactions is described. The main chapters include
- Quarks and leptons
- Interactions and fields
- Invariance principles and conservation laws
- Quarks in hadrons
- Lepton and quark scattering
- Quark interactions and QCD
- Weak interactions
- Electroweak interactions and the Standard Model
- Physics beyond the Standard Model
Exercise sessions complement the Lessons.
