Description
** Registration is now closed **
The first run of the LHC culminated with the discovery of the Higgs boson and the next run is expected to provide the first thorough exploration of the TeV scale threshold. The exciting LHC program is also complemented by a rich experimental program in flavor physics, neutrino physics, astroparticles and cosmology. All these topics will be covered during the next Cargese summer school, targeted particularly at advanced graduate students and young postdocs, with a strong interest in collider physics and particle theory. Theorists, model builders, phenomenologists, and experimentalists with strong inclination for theory are all encouraged to apply. The school will share the same spirit as the 2010 and 2012 schools. There will be three 1.5 h lectures per day followed by discussion sessions in the afternoon. Students will also have the opportunity to present their work in short talks if they wish.
Place:
The school will take place at the Institute for Scientific Studies in Cargese, Corsica.
Lectures:
♦ Experimental lectures:
- The high-pT pp physics in the first LHC Run: Maurizio Pierini (CERN, CMS),

♦ Closing lecture:
- The future: Gian Giudice (CERN).
