Conoscenze e abilità da conseguire

This subject focus on experimental techniques necessary to perform measurements in the field of particle physics. The student will learn in-depth aspects in the subject area, with particular attention to data analysis. He/She will acquire the necessary knowledge and skill to treat with complex measurements and systematics effects. In addition to professional training, at the end of the course, the student will be able to read critically original literature.
