Description
The course will cover the main features of perturbative QCD, together with some non-perturbative aspects such as hadronization, fragmentation functions and parton distributions in hadrons. Applications to a wide variety of processes in electron-positron, lepton-hadron and hadron-hadron collisions will be presented. The theoretical basis of QCD Monte Carlo event generators will also be outlined. Some familiarity with basic quantum field theory (Lagrangians, Dirac algebra, Feynman graphs) will be assumed.
