Report International Masterclasses Uta Bilow, TU Dresden ATLAS E&O 05.06.2012, CERN
International Masterclasses 2012 • Organized by IPPOG / TU Dresden • 27.2. - 24.3.2012 • 31 countries involved ( : new) • 117 research institutes/universities • + 30 institutes in U.S. program • 36 video conferences • 9000 students New concept New Vidyo service Huge success U.S. program VC with Fermilab
Measurements 143 MCs (95 ATLAS, 35 CMS, 13 ALICE) ATLAS W-Path (TU Dresden) W charge asymmetry structure of the proton 6 000 *real data* preselected events (~ 2000 W ℓn ) different set of data for each institute, combined in the VC *simulated* H WW search for yet undiscovered 250 WW + 0 jets (MC data) measure opening angle between 2 leptons, combine results in histogram (angular distribution) • ATLAS Z-Path (Univ. Oslo) • Find Dilepton events calculate invariant mass • 10 000 *real data* preselected events (~ 5000 Z ℓℓ ) • *simulated* Z´ ℓℓ search for yet undiscovered • derive mass spectrum • Discuss importance of invariant mass concept • Discuss meaning of finite width • Discuss meaning of new mass peaks (Z´)
Plans and next steps • Getting new countries on board • Interest expressedfor 2013: Romania, Cyprus, India, China, Australia, Georgia, middle east? • Local Masterclasses / Masterclass Spin-offs • WG at IPPOG meeting 4/2012 • ATLAS virtual visit replacing VC? • Presentations on Int´l Conferences • ICFP Crete 6/2012 • ICHEP Melbourne 7/2012 • ESOF Dublin 7/2012 • „Quark Confinement“ Munich 10/2012
