This is the 14th edition of a specialized course on the Physics at the Large Hadron Collider.
The
objective of the course is to introduce the physics, analysis methods
and results on the physics areas covered by the LHC experiments.
Emphasis is placed on the search for new physics, in particular
phenomena at the basis of the electroweak symmetry breaking. Benchmark
channels in proton-proton collisions will be discussed in detail,
covering the identification of the objects involved, the signal and
background properties, the background estimation and the S/B
discriminants, the evaluation of systematical errors, and the extraction
and interpretation of the final results.
