5. Rolling with Rutherford Indirect measurement using statistics Roll marbles to find probability of hits. – Each student rolls 10 times, gets # of hits/10 – Combine student results in histogram – Find peak probability Overly simple approach: d=PL/2N – L=width of field, N = no. marble targets, P = prob – Watch student video Watch student video

6. Quark Workbench Quark combination rules Fit puzzle pieces together – Each piece represents a quark with charge, color – Fit together to make mesons and baryons – Discover conservation rules in quark combinations – Watch student video Watch student video

7. Mass Calc Z Students have ATLAS and CMS dimuon events All Z candidates All muons close to transverse to beam axis – Students analyze in 2 dimensions – Add momentum vectors and energy scalars – Use momentum and energy to find invariant mass – Watch student video Watch student video

17. New poster about elementary particles  Initial version created in 2005 for the international physics year  An « equivalent », for particles, of the chemical elements periodic table  Poster printed and sent for free to all high schools in France  That poster is still on the walls of many classrooms  Most physics teachers we met know about it  2014 update: about time!  A decade after the first version, two years after the BEH boson discovery  A joint physicists + teachers + communication experts project  Budget significantly reduced w.r.t. 2005, but the plan remains the same  Print and ship A0 copies of the poster to all high schools  Additional educational material associated with the poster  The 2005 poster was translated to many langages  Voluntary work, no central collaboration  Do we (you) want to turn this into an IPPOG resource? 17

20. Turning the poster into an IPPOG resource  Our proposal: to provide any interested country with the high-definition files (A0  A4) of the poster translated in your langage, based on your translations of the different blocks of text  Either starting from the French version, or from an English version validated by nativespeakers  Translation procedure to be defined  Could be as simple as an online survey with one editable field for each block of text  Any suggestion to go further? 20

21. COSMIX cases: an update  See Zeuthen meeting for details about this new detector  The 10 cases for the Paris area have been produced by Bordeaux IN2P3 lab (CENBG) during Summer  Now is the time to make them circulate in high schools 21
