Introduction to Masterclasses for Particle Physicists

Tuesday 1 Dec 2020, 13:30 → 15:00 Europe/Zurich

In this event, participants can try out data measurements and get a taste from new Masterclasses. We offer Masterclasses on the following topics: Belle II e+e- collider experiment at KEK, DarkSide experiment at Gran Sasso, MINERvA neutrino experiment at Fermilab, a Particle Therapy Masterclass, and a web-based version of ALICE Strangeness. Learning groups are guided by Masterclass experts. There are two successive 45-minute sessions; participants can come to one or both.

These Masterclass measurements are primarily intended for groups of high school students in International Masterclasses, a  program of the International Particle Physics Outreach Group, and are used in more than 60 countries worldwide each year.
