Timepix-based detectors bring particle physics in the classroom
The ADMIRA project uses Timepix-based detectors to help students experiment with particle physics and contributes to transforming STEM education. Combustion, diffraction, magnetism… Many natural phenomena can be observed, experimented with and studied at school. Some have traditionally been difficult to demonstrate and have had to rely on theory only. Particle physics is one such subject…
