CELESTE
CELESTE is a scientific collaboration network between schools and universities, hosted in the Universidad de Sao Paulo, Brasil. Our idea To create a network of particle detectors that can be made and operated by high-school students and professors. Our project allows an independent investigation and permits, through hands-on lessons, the engagement of students in scientific…

Astronomy Astrophysics Antarctic Research in Thailand (AAART)
We are a research group based at Chiang Mai University, dedicated to exploring cosmic rays, neutrinos, and space weather interactions through experimental observations, data analysis, and detector development. We aim to expand Thailand’s role in high-energy astrophysics by contributing to global research collaborations and advancing detector technologies for next-generation experiments. Our team leads workshops, training programs, and outreach initiatives to foster the next generation of scientists in Thailand and Southeast…

COSMIX
INTRO COSMIX is a project developed at CEN Bordeaux-Gradignan aiming at providing high-school teachers with easy-to-use atmospheric-muon detectors. These detectors enable one to simply and quickly evidence the existence of cosmic rays. They take advantage of the recycling of Cesium iodide scintillator logs (CsI) and their associated electronics, used for tests preceding the launch of…

International Muon Week
International Muon Week (IMW) is held annually each spring. In IMW, high school students and teachers conduct cosmic ray experiments, troubleshoot, interact, and ask questions. Later, participants are able to discuss data and ask further questions through follow up Zoom connections. There are three choices of experiments: Time of Flight, Cosmic Ray Flux, and Muon…

Cosmic Ray e-Lab Studies
INTRO Cosmic Ray e-Lab Studies: provide opportunities for high school students to conduct their own scientific investigations either with data they collected themselves or with data from their peers. QuarkNet teachers receive a kit to build a portable, configurable classroom detector; non-QuarkNet educators can purchase the DAQ with GPS, antenna and temperature and pressure sensors.…

QuarkNet Cymru
QuarkNet Cymru builds on existing STEM programmes linked with HiSPARC and QuarkNet and a programme to pilot the use of cosmic ray detectors in schools across South Wales. Since January 2016, the project has tried to enthuse secondary school students in STEM activities through engagement in real hands-on astrophysics experiments — measuring cosmic rays using detectors…
