International Physics Masterclasses

Submitted by Steven Goldfarb on
International Physics Masterclasses

Host an International Physics Masterclass! Each masterclass consists of a series of lectures and discussions on particle physics followed by a hands-on session, during which students analysed real LHC data and performed measurements like particle physicists. At the end of each day, like in an international research collaboration, the participants join in a video conference for discussion and combination of their results. Visit the International Masterclass website to find out more.

"Particle physics is the unbelievable in pursuit of the unimaginable. To pinpoint the smallest fragments of the Universe you have to build the biggest machine in the world. To recreate the first millionths of a second of creation you have to focus energy on an awesome scale."

Event Analysis Tools

Submitted by Steven Goldfarb on
Amelia Event Display

High schools can use ATLAS event analysis tools - HYPATIA, HYPATIA Online, MINERVA, CAMELIA - for the interactive investigation of data collected by the experiment to make discoveries like physicists do. The aim of these tools is to give students a better understanding of how particle detectors work and the physics being studied at ATLAS. Such programmes can be run independently or in the framework of International Masterclasses.
