Vanderbilt Summer Meeting 2022
Overall plan for the week
- Mon 20 June - talks
- Tue 21 June - using the CRMDs, speed of muons, maybe analyze "muon decay data" already collected
- Wed 22 June - Higgs@10 (see below)
- Thu 23 June - CRMDs, analyzing triangle pulses, looking at the GPS raw , DAQ board
- Fri 24 June - spillover from previous days, administration, de-brief, fun activities outside
Additional short workshop
- Wed 27 July, Stevenson Center 6322. 9 am to 4 pm
- Agenda:
- speed-of-muons with the CMRDs
- (possibly) muon decay
- QuarkNet site, the Vandy QuarkNet site(s), and Google colab
- drop balls and slinkies - film and analyze
- Discuss how to use some of the above in the classroom
