Development of Interest in Particle Physics as an Effect of School Events in an Authentic Setting
The Particle Physics Masterclasses are events offered by the “Netzwerk Teilchenwelt”, a German network of particle physicists, students and teachers with the intention to make original data from CERN available for own measurements of students.

Attention to the strengths of physical interactions: Transformer and graph-based event classification for particle physics experiments [PDF]
A major task in particle physics is the measurement of rare signal processes. Even modest improvements in background rejection, at a fixed signal efficiency, can significantly enhance the measurement sensitivity. Building on prior research by others that

Using neural networks as an event trigger in elementary particle physics experiments [PDF]
Elementary particle physics experiments often have to deal with high data rates. In order to avoid having to write out all data that is occurring online processors, triggers are used to cull out the uninteresting data. These triggers are based on some particular aspect of the physics being examined. At times these aspects are often equivalent to simple

Cryogenic scintillators for search and investigation of extremely rare events in particle physics and astrophysics [PDF]
The inorganic scintillator is an important element of a new type of cryogenic phonon scintillation detectors (CPSD) developed for single particle detection. These detectors exhibiting superior energy resolution and ability to identify the type of interaction event are considered as a next generation instrumentation in the search for extremely rare ...
