The purpose of the Hands-On CERN project is to increase understanding of the most fundamental processes inside matter, and to explain modern research about particle collisions. Students can explore fundamental particles, play a game with virtual quarks, and build a foundation to understand strong and weak nuclear interaction.
CERN is the European Organization for Nuclear Research. It's primary function is to provide the particle accelerators and other infrastructure needed for high-energy physics research. Its laboratory houses the LHC (Large Hadron Collider). Please note that this resource requires Shockwave.
AAAS Benchmark Alignments (2008 Version)4. The Physical Setting
4D. The Structure of Matter
4E. Energy Transformations
This resource is part of a Physics Front Topical Unit.
Topic: Particles and Interactions and the Standard Model
Unit Title: The Standard Model This tutorial collection was designed to help high school students build an understanding of matter at its most fundamental: subatomic particles. Explore the Standard Model, weak and strong nuclear interaction, collision types, muon detection, and more. Link to Unit:
