Description
In these lectures we will introduce the LHC and experiments, and walk through the physics program as it has been conducted so far. Special attention will be given to our present understanding of the Standard Model measurements including the studies related to the Higgs particle, and to searches for new physics beyond the Standard Model. These searches encompass the search for direct production for new particles or forces, as well indirect search channels via precision measurements for examples via heavy flavour production. A bit of the recent history of excesses seen at the LHC will be included as well.
