An event that shows the potential and synergies of high-energy physics and astroparticle physics in the highly demanded field of Data Science in the modern society, and create links with the industry.

Data Scientist is one of the most sought-after jobs of the moment. Social Networks, Large Retail companies, Pharmaceutical, consulting and telecommunication companies, all the Fortune 500 companies are hiring Data Scientists. Everywhere, everyone.

A specialized course on the Physics at the Large Hadron Collider is organized by LIP in the framework of the International Doctorate Network in Particle Physics, Astrophysics and Cosmology (IDPASC). The course is intended for under-graduate or graduate students with basic training in Particle Physics. The objective of the Course is to introduce the physics, analysis methods and results on the physics areas covered by the LHC experiments.

TOPICS

• Experimental program at the LHC
• Standard Model at the LHC
• Detectors
• Statistics
• Top quark physics
• Higgs Physics
• SuperSymmetry
• Exotic processes and Dark Matter
• Heavy flavor physics and rare decays searches
• Matter at high density and temperature

FOR WHO is this course?

For anyone with a basic course on particle physics and/or to be familiar with the basics of physics.

Students are recommended to refresh their knowledge in particle physics prior to the Course.
