    Physics at the LHC (MVSpec)

    PrivDoz. Dr. Andrea Dubla (AD)

    Dr. Giulia Tuci (GT)

    (giulia.tuci@cern.ch)

     

    Lectures:
    Room: Thursday 14:00-16:00h, 

    (Lectures will start on 22.10.26)

    Journal Club:
    Room: Monday 14:00-16:00h, 

    (JC will start on 09.11.26)

     

    In this lecture we present detector technologies employed by the main high-energy physics experiments at the Large Hadron Collider.

     

    We will discuss recent physics results on

     

    • Quark-gluon plasma, hot QCD matter
    • CP-violation, lepton flavour universality
    • Higgs physics 

     

    The lecture course will also include a journal club showcasing some of the experiments most cited papers
