  1. NetzwerkTeilchenwelt= Network Particle WorldA German Network on Particle Physics education and outreachfunded by the German Federal Ministry of Education and ResearchProject leader: Michael Kobel Students project weeks – concept and example: “ATLAS Trigger Rate Processor” (Kaan Alp YAY) ATLAS Outreach Session, Julia Woithe

  2. Netzwerk Teilchenwelt : much more than Masterclasses Participants per year (approx.) Participants per year (approx.) Research projects Deepening the experience (CERN) Qualification Basic level 10 50 60 100 200 400 4000 students Teachers/trainers 1

  3. Deepening the experience: Project weeks for students at CERN • 2 weeks in October  19.-31.10.2014 (for the 4th time) • stay and travel expenses funded by NetzwerkTeilchenwelt • work on own research topics/measurements • tutors: scientists at CERN + scientist at student‘s „home university“ = local contact of NetzwerkTeilchenwelt • often extended to research papers as part of final school examinations or for youth research competitions Group of students at ATLAS Participants 2013 visiting the CCC 2

  4. Overview over research topics 2013 3

  5. “ATLAS Trigger Rate Processor” (Kaan Alp YAY) • Tutor at CERN: IvanaHristova (HU Berlin) • Aim of the project: • Improvement of software for trigger monitoring (GUI for trigger rate) • simulate new incoming data with old recorded data to simulate the performance and possible problems for RUN 2 in 2015 Trigger rate presenter ATLAS • Necessary skills for programming: Linux, Bash-Script, C++, XML (student had almost no previous knowledge) • Problems in current software version “nightly” discovered 4

  6. Conclusion • Great experience for students (all of them want to come back as summer students) • Direct insights in research at CERN • Optimal: win-win situation • Tutors and research topics needed!!! 5
