Cosmic Ray e-Lab Bob Peterson Fermi National Accelerator Lab
Teaching and Learning with Cosmic Rays Workshop Objectives: Assemble CRMD: plateau, geometry, data-take. Design e-Lab investigation: data, tools, plots. Begin poster, present results. Discuss implementation strategy.
Teaching and Learning with Cosmic Rays Por el gran parte del taller, estamos alumnos. Podemos tener la experiencia del “CR e-Lab” con la vista de un alumno Aprender bazado en investigacion

Teaching and Learning with Cosmic Rays CRMD Expectation: Not “plug & play” Assembling and thinking required Detectores en el LHC estan grandes y complicados, pero el CR detector usa tecnicas basicas ATLAS CMS QuarkNet Note: Images are not to scale
