GLOBAL COSMIC RAYS PORTAL
Welcome! The IPPOG Global Cosmic group invites educators and students to embark on hands-on sessions using setups suitable to be deployed as tabletop designs. In some of them the participants receive step-by-step instructions to build and assemble cosmic ray detectors, often using scintillator materials and photomultipliers. In others, open source software is prepared to facilitate data…
