Dates and schedule:
We will be having various sessions on February: from Tuesday 24th to Thursday 26th, including some breaks and the lunch period.
This brief course aims to familiarize students (oriented to last-year Bachelor, Master and PhD) with some useful software for the automatization of Feynman diagram calculations.
In particular, the lectures will be focused on a series of HEP packages for Mathematica, with an intended practical hands-on approach.
In the introductory sessions, we will discuss the installation and basic use of,
- FeynRules: implementation of a QFT Lagrangian and Feynman vertex derivation
- FeynArts: calculation of topologies and diagrams
- FeynCalc: formal evaluation of the Feynman diagrams
Requirements: it is highly recommended to have some previous knowledge on quantum field theory and particle physics. Likewise, the attendants should be familiar with Mathematica. It is highly recommended to bring a laptop with an active Mathematica installation (version 13.1 preferably). Contact the administrators if you need assistance with anything.
