The series of lectures intends to provide a basic introduction to the major theoretical tools which enter the construction of the standard model of electroweak interactions and QCD. After reviewing the Fermi and intermediate vector boson IVB theories, I shall discuss global and local gauge symmetries and their spontaneous breaking. This will enable us to study spontaneously broken gauge theories where the Higgs mechanism is operative. The final step of this course will be the presentation of the Lagrangian of the Standard Model and a discussion of its main features..

The course is intended for anyone with technical or scientific background who would like to become familiar with the principles of accelerator design. The level of the course is choses with the intention of preparing those with no specialist knowledg ccelerator School but also of interest to a much wider audience> The series of eight talks span all aspects of circular machines and cover in a simple way the principles of focusing, betatron motion, sispersion, chromaticity, radio-frequency systems, ilities..
The role of tracking and vertexing for the LHC experiments will be described. The characteristics of the various tracking detectors will be illustrated and the motivation for the solution adopted will be commented upon. Some system aspects will be covered togather with recent R and D advances..
The Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) experiment is a general-purpose detector designed to exploit the physics of pp-collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 14 TeV over the full range of luminosities expected at the LHC. Physics requirements and design considerations which led to the CMS detectors will be reviewed..
At its design luminosity, the LHC will deliver hundreds of millions of proton-proton interactions per second. Storage and computing limitations limit the number of physics events that can be recorded to about 100 per second. The selection will be carried out by the Trigger and data acquisition systems of the experiments. This lecture will review the requirements, architectures and various designs currently considered..
