Abstract
These lectures are intended to provide the theoretical basis of describing high-energy particle collisions at a level appropriate to graduate students in experimental high energy physics. They are supposed to be familiar with quantum electrodynamics, the concept of Feynman rules, Feynman graphs and computation of the cross section in quantum field theory.
