Synopsis:

This scientific field presents formidable challenges both experimentally and theoretically, simply because we are dealing with the submicroscopic domain, where much of our classical intuition regarding the behaviour of objects fails us. The lecture is a basic introduction to very interesting regions of subatomic physics.

Requirements:
Syllabus of lectures:

1.Introduction - basic definitions and historical review

2.Collision kinematics

3.Cross section properties
