  1. How do we learn about particle physicsfrom high-energy physics detectors? • We learn about the very successful theory of elementary particles (the Standard Model of particle physics)… • And we learn about strange displays from particle experiments…. The forces (fields): The particles: 23Jun2010 QuarkNet

  2. March 30, 2010 at the LHC, CERN 23Jun2010 QuarkNet

  3. Connecting the dots…. How do we go from here: to here: ???? 23Jun2010 QuarkNet

  4. Particle detectors 23Jun2010 QuarkNet

  5. What particles are actually detected? (mostly) 23Jun2010 QuarkNet

  6. Detectors revealed • Inner detectors: Low density ionization detectors to measure trajectory of charged particles (gas, thin silicon) in a uniform magnetic field (p=qvB). [trackers] • Outer detectors absorb and measure particle energies. [calorimeters] • Muons (and neutrinos) survive. • Energy & Momentum conservation to reconstruct the processes
