<!-- 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>

The students will have lectures in the morning about the subatomic world, as well as ATLAS, the Large Hadron Collider and CERN. The students will visit a lab where an upgrade to the ATLAS hardware is being tested. They will then have the chance to discuss and ask questions to two post-docs working for McGill, but based at CERN, thanks to ATLAS virtual visits! Following that, the students will then try to rediscover an elementary particle by analyzing specially prepared data, which will be followed by them reporting their findings to other institutes.</p>

This is taking place on Thursday, June 18, 2015 at 1:30 pm, NY time (Eastern Standard). The 5th grade students have been studying Astronomy and our Solar System. We are familiar with the ATLAS experiment because a girl in our grade, Alissa Bee, is the daughter of Dr. Chris Bee. Dr. Bee came to our school and did a presentation on the ATLAS experiment. We all enjoyed his presentation, so we are all very excited about today's virtual visit!</p>

<!-- Replace default by booking form content --><p>This ATLAS Virtual Visit is being conducted with Mrs. Triessl's 4th grade class at the Southdown Primary School in Huntington, NY. The students of Mrs. Triessl's class have been studying together in an innovative Dual-Language (Spanish/English) program since kindergarten. In spite of the extra academic effort this program requires, the curriculum has maintained a strong and increasing focus on science education. The students have begun this year learning about matter and energy and look forward to meeting a real scientist addressing these topics in a laboratory far across the ocean! The school and the district are thrilled to have this opportunity, which they hope will inspire their students toward future participation in their growing K-12 scientific programs (see <a href="http://www.hufsd.edu/academics/science/">http://www.hufsd.edu/academics…; science_index.html).</p>

Colliding particles at very high energy to a speed close to the speed of light, demonstrates that all matter on earth is made up of electrons and quarks and gluons, the substructure of protons and neutrons. Short films will present two of the main experiments at the Large Hadron Collider, the European Center for Nuclear Research, ATLAS and CMS, where protons collide at energies up to 7 tev, simulating a situation very close to the big bang. Discussions about the potential discoveries of the Higgs boson will be performed. Posters displayed will show the detectors at the LHC and at the Tevatron Fermilab in Chicago. A live video link with the CERN will be provided at 12:00 PM.</p>
