"The tools of statistical analysis continue to prove indispensable for experiments. In modern physical applications, increasingly sophisticated and specific tools are needed to reliably extract results from complex data. This textbook thus presents a comprehensive treatment of the topic for the practicing physicist, focusing less on mathematical foundations but appealing to intuitive techniques. This fourth edition is greatly expanded with new sub-topics and examples. We begin with fundamental probability concepts and measurement errors, continuing to the crucial Monte Carlo simulation. The sections on parameter inference with constrained parameters, treatment of distorted data, and statistics of weighted events, among others, are updated with new developments. Likelihood and its underlying likelihood principle are explored with great detail, while final chapters expound on other advanced techniques such as statistical learning and hypothesis testing. Developed and greatly expanded from a popular graduate course at the University of Siegen, this book serves as an essential resource for all graduate students and researchers in physics seeking a rigorous foundation in statistical methods for experimental physics, especially those in nuclear and particle physics"-- Provided by publisher.
