QuarkNet e-Labs
Share
Teaching and Learning with e-Labs We are exploring the use of FB as a tool to foster community amongst I2U2 e-Lab users.
To communicate with fellow I2U2 e-Lab users, join the I2U2 Users Group. Just search for "I2U2 Users" and request to join. e-Labs provide, to schools, real data from cutting-edge physics experiments. Students are also provided access to computing resources to support their investigations. Currently data are available from The LHC's Compact Muon Solenoid, the Laser Interferometer Gravitational Obser
We are changing the name of the i2u2 page to a QuarkNet e-Labs. i2u2 as a project no longer exists and the e-Labs are part of QuarkNet

Edit Peronja, our e-Lab developer, got EQUIP running on a $70 Raspberry pi computer and taking data from the Muon Cosmic Ray Detector (DAQ), developed at Fermilab. See the small computer in her hand, the DAQ in the foreground and the graph on the monitor displayed using EQUIP. EQUIP (E-lab QuarkNet User Interface Purdue) java interface was developed by Matthew Jones at Purdue University, Frank Roetker of Jefferson High School and Edit Peronja at Fermilab with support from the National Science Foundation and the Department of Energy.

Our datacenter has scheduled downtime from 1700 Central Time, Friday, 4 November to Sunday, 6 November.
Our datacenter has scheduled downtime on Tuesday, 4 October from 2100-2300 Central Time.
Most of the posts are to the I2U2 Users Group so check that out if you want to communicate with your fellow e-Lab users. First make a request to join.
We have scheduled downtime this extended Memorial Day weekend from close of business Friday to Monday.
The I2U2 staff is wondering who is seeing these posts. If you are, can you acknowledge that you are receiving them with a comment? We were hoping some of you would post your experiences with your cosmic ray detectors.

Who's that crossing the equator at sea in a rubber raft? Only our intrepid Cosmic Ray Rider. Come learn more. . . .
Quantum Diaries Bob Peterson continues to travel with his QuarkNet particle detector around the edge of Africa recording remnants of cosmic rays. This offers a chance to study how cosmic ray recordings differ on land and sea and at different latitudes. The data will be accessible to high school students and teache
To see Bob Peterson's blog mentioned below, you have to use the search and put in "Bob Peterson".

Bob is running into some difficulties with his cosmic ray detector. Read about what he is doing to fix it. Have any of you teachers with cosmc ray detecotrs had similar problems. Share them with the rest of us.
