Talk

This presentation describes the measurement of the beam composition in one of the experimental halls of CERN, the East Hall. This study was conducted in Autumn 2023 as part of being one of the three winning teams globally for the CERN Beamline For Schools. We have designed an experimental setup using different particle detectors to measure the rate, position, particles, and energy of the...

Our magnetic mangle, a multifunctional variant of the Halbach cylinder designed for 100MeV – 10GeV electron beams, was nominated as one of the winners of the 2023 Beamline for School (BL4S) competition. As a result, we were selected to testing it on the T10 beamline of CERN, Geneva, in September 2023. Analysis of the experimental results shows deflections well within the margin of error of our...

Talk

As part of the Beamline for Schools competition, we have created our own of wire chambers design and built five prototypes that we tested at the DESY-II testbeam facility. The chambers are designed such that they can be built with tools typically found in maker labs and use widely available materials.
Our detector consisted of two pairs of chambers with each plane in rotated by 90 degrees,...
