Identifying Events
In this chapter you learn how to identify events (proton-proton collisions). Thus you can associate event displays with physical processes.


On the following pages you can find information about the W particle, its production processes during collisions at the LHC, its detection in events with the event display MINERVA, and a concluding exercise. Afterwards you are ready for the measurements.



This is how the ATLAS-detector sees proton-proton collisions.



There is a lot going on!
