Visit Description

<p> </p>
<!-- Replace default by booking form content --><p>Institutes from western North America will host high school students in a day-long ATLAS Masterclass.</p>
<p>This year groups are from TRIUMF, the University of Victoria, and Simon Fraser University all from British Colunbia Canada along with Loveland High School from Colorado, USA. Students will learn about particle physics and will collaborate with each other across international borders. Scientists with ATLAS will show students the physics of fundamental particles, and then the students will try their hand at finding them using actual data and analysis tools from the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider in Geneva. The day ends with a videoconference amongst the institutions to discuss results.</p>
<p>The Particle Physics Masterclass began in Europe in 2005 and has since spread around the globe, incorporating schools from Japan, Canada, China, and the United States. </p>
