Theory is cool - LAB seminar I (17:00-18:00)

Thursday 10 Nov 2016, 17:00 → 18:00 Europe/Zurich

Introduction to Quantum Field Theory & Standard Model of particle physics

In this seminar we try to give a short introduction to the theoretical basics of a quantum field theory in general, and to the standard model in particular. Questions to be addressed are, amongst others: How do symmetries enter our theories, and what do they imply? How do Feynman diagrams work, and how are they related to the Lagrangian?

The format of the seminar will be such as to enhance interaction, with the first 30 minutes as a starting presentation and the following 30 minutes as a Q&A session.
