Statistics Help
In particle physics, sought after events that confirm many aspects of the theory of elementary particles can be relatively rare. Determining if signals recorded in detectors are from these events, rather than minor blips in the plethora of background events, requires the application of sophisticated statistical analysis. If anyone out there can recommend a good primer in statistical methods that covers Monte Carlo methods, Markov chains, and Bayesian statistics, please let me know.

One of your old high school students here- not sure about bayesian statistics but Joel Franklins "Computational Methods in Physical Sciences" has good basic discussion of monte carlo and markov
