- Past Events
The Go-Lab project will be present with a booth at CERN Open Days (28th - 29th September 2013, Geneva, Switzerland). Go-Lab will be demonstrating its online labs, which will be available for the participants for trying out!
The following labs will be represented:
CERNland
CERNland is a virtual theme park developed in order to excite students aged between 7 and 12 years old with CERN's research. With a range of games, multimedia applications and interactive tools, CERNland is designed to show students what is done at CERN and inspire them with basic physics. Students get acquainted with a variety of ideas like the powers of ten or the formation of atoms.
LHCgame
The LHC Game is a tool introducing students to the operation of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN, which is a particle accelerator used by physicists to study the smallest known particles. Using this application, students have an opportunity to learn about how the accelerator works. An interactive game allows them to accelerate particles on their own and bend their trajectories or focus beams of particles.
MINERVA
MINERVA is an interactive analysis tool for students to learn more about the ATLAS experiment at CERN. It is based on a simplified setup allowing users to visualize what is happening in the detector by using 2D animations. Students have a chance to get a glimpse of how scientific experiments are performed in particle physics and how new discoveries are made.
HYPATIA
HYPATIA (Hybrid Pupil's Analysis Tool for Interactions in Atlas) is tool allowing studying of fundamental particles of matter and their interactions using a graphic visualization/display of the products of particle collisions. These products are "events" detected by the ATLAS experiment at new world’s most powerful particle accelerator, the LHC.
Collider
Collider is a mobile application letting students view high energy particle collisions directly from the Large Hadron Collider, making it simple to understand what's going on at a glance. Students can view live events straight from the ATLAS Detector at CERN and find out how to identify different particles.
