PHYS 463 - Particle Physics Units: 3 The study of nature at the highest energies and shortest distances that we can probe in a laboratory. This course will give a general introduction to the elementary particles of the standard model, and the forces that govern them.
Prerequisites: PHYS 126 or PHYS 137. Possible Instructional Methods: Entirely On-ground. Grading: A-F or CR/NC (student choice). Course Typically Offered: Variable Intermittently
Student Learning Outcomes - Upon successful completion of this course students will be able to:
- calculate cross sections for various processes using Feynman calculus;
- determine allowed decays for various processes;
- classify fundamental subatomic particles by their possible interactions;
- explain how particles can be detected by exploiting their interactions with matter.
