- The student has a good knowledge of electromagnetic interactions between particles and is able to calculate cross sections via leading order Feynman Diagrams.
- The student has a good knowledge of strong interactions (QCD) of the Standard Model (SM) and is able to calculate basic QCD Feynman Diagrams. He knows about the partonic structure of the proton.
- The student has a good knowledge of weak interactions
- The student has a basic knowledge of collider physics and knows the properties and decays of the SM particles.
- The student has a good knowledge of the Higgs mechanism
- The student has a good knowledge of the flavour sector of the SM and CP violation
- The student is able to describe why we need new physics beyond the SM of particle physics.
