This course gives an introduction to physics analysis at a nuclear or particle physics experiment.
This course consists of three sections: In the first part, we give an introduction to the Standard Model of Particle Physics. We discuss mainly the fundamental concepts without going into the mathematical details of the theory. The section #2 explains interactions of particles with matter and how they are used in particle detection devices. Finally, we give an introduction to probability and statistics, mainly from the point of view of experimental data analysis.
