10:00 - 10:45
Room: Auditorium
Abstract: Quantum Chromodynamics is the part of the Standard Model that describes the strong interactions between quarks and gluons, which bind to protons, neutrons, etc. The lectures will cover several aspects of this theory, with a focus on phenomena and methods relevant to collider physics. Where needed, some background from quantum field theory will be provided. Topics covered: - perturbation theory, running coupling and scale dependence - QCD in electron-positron annihilation, hadronic jets - from the parton model to the concept of factorisation - QCD in Monte Carlo event generators - parton distribution functions

The „next big thing“ in HEP colliders has still a long way to go. While the community agrees that the next energy-frontier collider should be a Higgs Factory, the path towards realisation, the form factor, or even the family of colliding particles has still to be decided. The path towards very high collision energies is even less clear and has a lot of technological challenges to pass. I will discuss the possible developments starting with HL-LHC towards the next circular (FCC, CEPC, Muons) or linear (ILC, CLIC) collider.

I will give a short introduction in the physics and detection method of high-energy astrophysics. This includes a discussion of the highest energetic particles in the Universe, well beyond what can be produced in man-made accelerators. Mechanism for acceleration, propagation and interaction of charged cosmic rays, high-energetic gamma rays and neutrinos are discussed in the context of the large astroparticle projects IceCube and CTA, which form a central part of DESY’s activities in this field.
