Join us on a journey to the smallest pieces of
matter! Learn what is happening 100 meters below
the ground at the European Organization for Nuclear
Research (CERN). In the Large Hadron Collider, with
a circumference of 27 kilometers, the experiments
ALICE, ATLAS, CMS, and LHCb are running. The
following 15 min. movie with subtitles in 15
languages gives an impression of the start of a
fascinating journey into a world of antimatter and
new discoveries with the LHCb Collaboration.
Particle Physics is exciting research! You can
take your part in that research. The analysis of
data samples that have been recorded in 2011
with the LHCb detector is waiting for you. Under
the points in the main (upper) menu, you select
the measurement of the lifetime of the charm
particle called D0. The processing
requires about minutes. There is a
theoretical introduction at the beginning. This
is followed by exercises and the actual
measurement. Afterwards you can evaluate and
interpret your result.
Please choose the D0 LIFETIME above. Now do some 21st century particle physics!
