Particle detectors for schools

As announced in the invitation to join the Beamline for Schools Competition 2016; teams that make it with their proposal to the shortlist being submitted to the SPS and PS committee will receive a functional particle detector for their school. Do you wonder what that would be?

We are glad to introduce you the CosmicPi! CosmicPi is a project started at CERN by enthusiastic young people who always wanted to build a low cost cosmic ray detector. Find more details about this project on their homepage at http://cosmicpi.org/.
