Lecture 1A: Introduction to Physics Simulation

 

Prof. Thomas Lindblad gave an overview of physics and simulation on overhead transparencies at the first class meeting. We have scanned and presented them here with some additional comments included.

High energy physics today involves huge facilities to carry out the study of the fundamental particles and forces of matter. This diagram shows the Large Hadron Collider now under construction at CERN near Geneva, Switzerland. Simulations of the particle interactions, of all the detectors in the elaborate experiments, and of the accelerator are all required to run the systems properly and to understand the data.
