Some event impressions as well as most of the detectors design for ExpoCiencia event in Valencia are now online.

Last weekend, the time had finally come: after about six month of preparation, planing and design time in more or less weekly meetings, the model, built from over 16’000 LEGO pieces, was put together with real bricks for the first time. The construction took place both at University of Münster and Goethe-University Frankfurt. Here’s a few pictures. More details and soon also 3D models, construction manuals and parts lists are available on a dedicated ALICE LEGO model page.

Given the unique situation in various countries worldwide caused by the corona pandemic, we are hosting a BYOPDatHome online / social media competition.

As usual we want you to create and name a design for a particle detector as you, your family and kids would imagine it.
Only this time we want you to post your designs on either Instagram or Twitter.

Find some more information and all the details to join the competition on the competition page.
