An exciting programme of lectures and hands-on sessions will discuss the
Standard Model and its rediscovery at the current Energy Frontier at the LHC:
- An overview of the first year of data-taking at the LHC:
Minimum Bias, Jets, Gauge Bosons and Top Quarks;
- Hot topics in QCD and jet physics;
- Review of Standard Model candles and their accuracy;
- The route to discovering new physics at the LHC;
- Simulation tools for LHC physics: Trying them in practical sessions.
