Description for Data Analysis in High Energy Physics
Paperback. A guide to statistical data analysis for high energy physics: strongly related to LHC practice and addressing both students entering the field and researchers who are looking for a concise reference. Editor(s): Behnke, Olaf; Kroninger, Kevin; Schott, Gregory; Schorner-Sadenius, Thomas. Num Pages: 440 pages, Illustrations. BIC Classification: PBW; PHP. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 238 x 175 x 22. Weight in Grams: 932.
This practical guide covers the essential tasks in statistical data analysis encountered in high energy physics and provides comprehensive advice for typical questions and problems. The basic methods for inferring results from data are presented as well as tools for advanced tasks such as improving the signal-to-background ratio, correcting detector effects, determining systematics and many others. Concrete applications are discussed in analysis walkthroughs. Each chapter is supplemented by numerous examples and exercises and by a list of literature and relevant links. The book targets a broad readership at all career levels - from students to senior researchers. An accompanying website ... Read more
