Learning aims & outcomes
The aim of this introductory course in Particle Physics is to develop a basic understanding of the Standard Model of Particle Physics and how it has been tested experimentally.
A student who successfully completes the course will understand the basic structure of the Standard Model in terms of symmetry and how this leads to definite predictions for the interactions and properties of elementary particles which can be tested experimentally.
