-----


We provide here complimentary material to the lectures that can used by students to verify their understanding of the basic concepts. 

===== Monte Carlo integration =====

A short introduction to the techniques of Monte Carlo integration. Exercises proposed during lecture are collected in this Mathematica Notebook: [attachment:mc101.nb mc101.nb].

===== LHC Phenomenology =====

   * [wiki:DiscoverTheHiggs SM Higgs discovery at the LHC]: Three important channels
   * [wiki:WarmingUpChallenge Simple Black Boxes]: New gauge bosons


A collection of test, exercises, and web applications on pQCD can be found in [attachment:QCD_Pavia2015.pdf QCD_Pavia2015.pdf].
