COSMIX, a portable cosmic ray detector  Designed and built by the Bordeaux-Gradignan IN2P3 lab (CENBG)  2 scintillator bars reused from Fermi-GLAST R&D, connected to photomultipliers  Custom-built electronics  GPS & pressure meter  LCD screen showing counters  Data saved in ASCII format on a SD memory card  Cost ~1.5 k€ / briefcase   2 including scintillator bars [free for now as bars reused]  Weight < 3 kg total  Powered by USB cable, no tuning needed – nor any training  Can be connected to a scope to see muon signals  One bar is movable and can be superimposed to the other one  Study single (C1, C2) vs. coincidence rates (C1  C2) 2

 Scope signals – left: a counter right: coincidence between the counters  Plane flights In a flying-club plane (up to 1800 m) In a commercial flight Examples of measurements 3 Altitude Counter rate Counter rate Pressure

Outlook  ~20 COSMIX briefcases to be produced this Summer  3 prototypes built last year and shown in15 high schools (1,000 students)  The COSMIX detectors will circulate in high schools (quick rotation) and be used by labs for outreach and communication events: open days, public lectures, etc.  Website foreseen to store COSMIX data of special interest  Eiffel Tower, high mountain, underground laboratory (Modane), etc.  `Hand-made’ production at CENBG  Once a year – internship season & need to pass large orders to local companies  Enough spare scintillators to build about twice more detectors  Not aware of any similar detector – portable and allowing to sense real particles  Anyone interested in knowing more about the COSMIX detector?  Live demo during the break  Website (in French): 4
