What’s QuarkNet ?  QuarkNet is an Educational program whose aim is to support science education in High Schools by establishing a nationwide teacher network.  Goal: Bring high school Students, Physics Teachers and Particle Physicists to learn together frontline physics.  QuarkNet Centers provides an opportunities to establish a mentor relationship between with local Universities Professor to work together on High Energy Physics (HEP) experiments and explore the world of Elementary Particle Physics

QuarkNet Centers QuarkNet: a nationwide Educational program. [~60 Universities and National HEP Lab across de US] funded by NSF and DOE

The only group in “Experimental HEP” in Puerto Rico (and probably in the Caribe) is at UPR Mayaguez. HEP Group at UPRM Post-Doc: Dr. Z. Li (Post-Doc) Professors (and QuarkNet Mentors): Dr. A. López Dr. H. Méndez Dr. E. Ramírez Graduates Students (2005): Neida Santacruz Arjuna Castrillón Osvaldo Aquines Carlos Andres Florez QuarkNet Lead Teachers: Rafael Aramis López (CROEM. Mayaguez) Luis Torres Rosas (Pedro Falú. RioGrande) System Manager (charma.uprm.edu) Hugo Hernández Why UPRM QuarkNet Center at Mayaguez ?

Group’s Projects FOCUS (Fermilab at Illinois) Fixed Target Experiment on PhotoProduction of quark charm CLEOc (Cornell University at New York) Collider e - e + experiment CMS (LHC at CERN Geneve) (in progress) Collider experiment (2008) QuarkNet Center (since 2003)

UPRM QuarkNet Center Two trained Lead Teacher (L. Torres & R. A. López) 7 weeks at UPRM (Learning on Particle Physics) 1 week at FERMILAB (National Lead teacher Institute Brought their experience to the ClassRoom. Try to implement a physics course based on modern physics research on HEP

Associate Teacher Institute (ATI)  Hands-on experiences in Particle Physics Education techniques in a unique environment  Resources for transferring your experience to the classroom  Presentations by Particle Physicists  Opportunity to visit world class HEP research Lab and collaborate on an International experiment (MARIACHI: ultra High Energy Cosmic Rays)  Teachers (from around the Island)  3 weeks workshop 2 week (June 6 – June 17, 05) 1 week Follow-up (During academic year)

Schedule (two weeks) Monday – Friday [9:00 – 17:00] Lab Session: Afternoon o PhotoElectric Effect o Cosmic Rays Detector o Introduction to HTML o Particle Adventure etc, etc Talk Session: Morning o FOCUS at FERMILAB o LHC at Cern o Jefferson Lab o CLEOc at Cornell o Grid Computing o The Big Bang o Special Relativity o HEP Detectors o MC Simulations o Physics on Cancer o Standard Model etc, etc Excursions: o Radio Observatory Arecibo o Planetarium at RUM

ATI’s Stipends (pay by NSF and DOE at the end of the 2 week) $300 per week $100 for travel (3 weeks) $150 ($15 per day) for food (2 weeks) $250 mini-grant per year (present a mini proposal to: QuarkNet National Center)  Total for 2 weeks: $850.00

Near Future Activities  ATI summer 06 with 12 + new 10 teachers  QuarkNet is a long-term program that provide some support for: o meetting attendance o Lead teacher institute at Fermilab o don’t lost contact..
