Introduction to MC generators and Detectors in Particle Physics

Introduction to MC generators and Detectors in Particle Physics. A course similar to this, as listed on the NExT school website.

[Stefano Moretti]

Sasha will indeed give a course on Tools for High Energy Physics which will also cover Monte Carlo event generators and probably generic detector software too. However, for an in depth module on Detectors, Triggers, etc., you should contact Antonella de Santo in Sussex, who delivered/offered it in the past.

I have reschedule my course to a tentative date 30 June-2July
Please let me  know who is interested in it and if these dates are acceptable to everybody!
Cheers,
