Special intensive 1-week workshop for 2005!
Summer Research Opportunities
for high school teams
of students and teachers
The Cosmic R ay Observatory Project
actively participate in a real high energy
astroparticle physics experiment
It's time to rebuild the effort at each of our existing
member schools, and offer training to the new students attracted to the
project! In just one week we will guide teams in the maintenance
and use of theirown detectors, repair or swap out any damaged
equipment, and upgrade your DAQcard software. Sessions will
include oscilloscope lessons, DAQcard trouble-shooting, data analysis,
and even building rooftop enclosures.
We are preparing to host up to 100
participants for this single week! This means we will also have
room for a few schools NEW to the project!
Each
high school may bring 1-2 teachers accompanied by up to 3
students. As usual each participant will receive a stipend
($70/day for teachers and $47/day for students). Room and board
will be provided for commuting guests by Campus Housing.
