Practical Collider Physics provides a self-contained summary of all of the necessary theoretical, experimental and statistical knowledge required to analyse hadron collider data, focussing on the skills and techniques that are rarely covered in standard textbooks. It covers topics including parton distribution functions, resummation, parton showers, hadronisation, and the underlying event and jet algorithms, all of which are vital for understanding the form and function of Monte Carlo generators. A detailed overview of the ATLAS and CMS detectors is also provided, along with their object-reconstruction algorithms, followed by a pedagogical introduction to computing and data-processing approaches, data-analysis basics, and detailed methods for high-precision measurements and particle searches. This book is appropriate for honours-level undergraduates and masters students, as well as supporting taught-course and practical aspects of a PhD in particle physics.

Key Features Provides a detailed reference on current LHC analysis techniquesCovers all of the necessary theoretical, experimental and statistical knowledge required to perform a complete hadron collider data analysisA unique collaboration between particle experimentalists and theoristsCovers complex topics at a level that makes it accessible to final year undergraduate students.

The purpose of this book is to summarise the practical methods and tools of high-energy collider physics in a convenient form, covering the minimum amount of material that one needs to know about both theoretical and experimental methods for hadron colliders. Although the book is divided into a mostly theoretical part, followed by a mostly experimental part, we strongly encourage theorists and experimentalists to read both parts to gain a complete understanding of how hadron collider physics works in practice. It is impossible to properly interpret Large Hadron Collider (LHC) data without a great deal of experimental knowledge, and neither is it possible for experimentalists to properly complete their work without knowing a reasonable amount of theory. In essence, our book digests the normal supervisor–student mentoring conversations into a convenient form, so that students can hit the ground running as they start a graduate project in the field. As a reflection of this role, we have also tried to make this a practical manual, focused on concepts and strategies needed to make progress on concrete research tasks, and—as far as we can manage—with a minimum of formality. For supervisors, we hope that the book will provide a handy reference for those senior moments when they cannot quite remember how something works.
