For Statisticians

Introductory material on the workshop for Statisticians by Richard Lockhart and Louis Lyons

Introductory material on statistical issues in particle physics:

1) "Open statistical issues in Particle Physics" by Louis Lyons - an article written specifically for statisticians

2) T. R. Junk and L. Lyons, “Reproducibility and Replication of Experimental Particle Physics Results”,  Harvard Data Science Review (2020).    Section 2 is a very short introduction to Particle Physics and the appendix is  “Glossary of Particle Physics Terminology”      https://hdsr.mitpress.mit.edu/pub/1lhu0zvn/release/3 

3) Section 1.1 of the article on "Systematics" by Heinrich et al describes the role of systematics in a very simple pendulum experiment; no Particle Physics is involved.
