Discover the Z boson

ViSH

Type	Excursion (Interactive Presentation)
Description	Students will use the experimental data collected by the ATLAS experiment at CERN to “discover” invisible particles and calculate their mass. For this purpose they will identify different lepton types and use Einstein’s famous equation for the equivalence of mass and energy. They will also us vector addition to add the momenta of several particles which are the decay products of the invisi...

• Title: Discover the Z boson
• Description: Students will use the experimental data collected by the ATLAS experiment at CERN to “discover” invisible particles and calculate their mass. For this purpose they will identify different lepton types and use Einstein’s famous equation for the equivalence of mass and energy. They will also us vector addition to add the momenta of several particles which are the decay products of the invisible particles. The particle they will be looking for is the particle responsible for the weak force, the Z boson.

SCORM 1.2 SCORM 2004

A SCORM package is a collection of files which are packaged according to an agreed standard for learning objects. SCORM packages are zip files that can be integrated in any LMS (Learning Management System) that supports the standard (Moodle, Blackboard, …) and that can be used for presenting multimedia content and as assessment tools. Thus, you can integrate your Virtual Excursion in Moodle and other LMSs by downloading it as SCORM.
