This volume is a compilation of the lectures at TASI 2014. The coverage focuses on modern calculational techniques for scattering amplitudes, and on the phenomenology of QCD in hadronic collisions. Introductions to flavor physics, dark matter, and physics beyond the Standard Model are also provided. The lectures are accessible to graduate students at the initial stages of their research careers.
Contents:
- Introduction to QCD (T Gehrmann)
- A Brief Introduction to Modern Amplitude Methods (L J Dixon)
- Experimental Methods at the LHC (A Korytov)
- QCD on the Lattice: The Central Role of Effective Field Theory (A X El-Khadra)
- Introduction to Parton-Shower Event Generators (S Höche)
- TASI Lectures on Flavor Physics (Z Ligeti)
- Amplitudes in N = 4 Super-Yang-Mills Theory (M Spradlin)
- Applied Holography (C P Herzog)
- Physics Beyond the Standard Model at Colliders (K Matchev)
- Mathematical Aspects of Scattering Amplitudes (C Duhr)
- Lectures on Gauge and Gravity Amplitude Relations (J J M Carrasco)
- The Hunt for Dark Matter (G B Gelmini)
- TASI 2014 Participants
Readership: Graduate students and researchers in high energy physics, astroparticle physics and cosmology.
