Content
|
The course will cover the physics of particle detectors. It will introduce the experimental
techniques used in nuclear and particle physics and describe the layout and functionality of modern
HEP experiments. The lecture includes the interaction of particles with matter, scintillators
and time-of-flight detectors, the principle of gas chambers, silicon detectors, modern calorimetry and
detectors for particle identification. Large detector systems as used at accelerators like HERA, the LHC
and the Tevatron will also be discussed.
