DESCRIPTION:This is the 16th edition of a specialized course on the Physic
 s at the Large Hadron Collider. It is organized by LIP in the framework of
  the International Doctorate Network in Particle Physics\, Astrophysics an
 d Cosmology (IDPASC). The course is intended for under-graduate or graduat
 e students with basic training in Particle Physics. The objective of the C
 ourse is to introduce the physics\, analysis methods and results on the ph
 ysics areas covered by the LHC experiments.\nLectures will take place in p
 erson at LIP (in "sala Seminarios"). A Zoom link is available below.\nTOPI

  the basics of physics.\nRequired backgroundAttendees are expected to have
  followed a basic course on particle physics and/or to be familiar with th
 e following topics:\n\nBasic concepts Elementary constituents of matter an
 d interactions. Quantum numbers and conservation rules. Spin and symmetry 
 groups. Relativistic kinematics. Cross-section. Natural units. Mass and li
 fetime. Resonances.\nStructure of matter Elastic scattering and form facto
 rs. Inelastic scattering experiments. Nucleon structure functions. Scale i
 nvariance. Quark model. Parton distribution functions. Introduction to QCD
 .\nFundamental interactions Introduction to QED. Fermi interaction. Parity
  violation. Currents V-A and weak doblets. W and Z bosons. Cabibbo angle. 
 Neutral currents. Electroweak interaction. Gauge symmetries. The Higgs mec
 hanism. Weinberg-Salam model. CP violation.\n\nStudents are recommended to
  refresh their knowledge in particle physics prior to the Course. Suggeste

 25-2026/2-semestre\nIn order to be qualified for the exam\, students must 
 attend at least 80% of the lectures. The evaluation will consist of a pres
 entation (~20mins) of a paper\, followed by questions.\n \nCertificateA c
 ertificate will be delivered after the Course upon regular attendance and 
 successful final examination.\nThe content of the Course may be updated as
  a result of possible discoveries at LHC during the Course duration.\n\n\n
