AUGER MASTERCLASS AT YOUR INSTITUTION
Are you interested in organizing an Auger Masterclass at your institution on a different date? You have the possibility to perform the activity locally and in an autonomous manner. For this purpose, please send an email in advance to augermasterclasses@lip.pt.
We will open one entry in the webpage for your activity and provide the necessary remote support. You will find all the necessary materials and documentation at the Downloads tab.
About
The Pierre Auger Observatory organizes every year International Masterclass events for high-school students worldwide, included in the program of International Masterclasses (IMC) managed by the International Particle Physics Outreach Group (IPOGG).
During this activity, high-school students (15-18 years old) spend one full day at universities or research institutes. They learn about particle/astroparticle physics, about the Pierre Auger Observatory and analyze the Auger public data to look for answers to the question: “What is the origin of ultra-high-energy cosmic rays?” Afterwards, the students participate in a joint videoconference with their peers at other locations and with scientists at the Pierre Auger Observatory in Malargue, to discuss their results and make a virtual visit to the observatory.
