Activity in school. ATLAS Coloring book for kids

On Decmeber 12, as part of the anillo ACT 1406 project, 3 talks were given in one of Viña del Mar’s most emblematic schools, Colegio Winterhil. The talks were given to groups of young kids (7yo – 9yo)  and were about the ATLAS Experiment. As part of the activity, a coloring book about the ATLAS experiment was given to each one of the kids. It was a great success and the kids seemed to be very interested about science and the particles of the Universe.

Jornada de difusión científica

El día martes 4 de Septiembre, se realizó una jornada de difusión científica a través del proyecto anillo ACT 1406, donde alumnos del colegio Altamonte visitaron el Laboratorio de Detección de partículas del la UTFSM. Se les realizó una guía de todo el laboratorio y se hizo una presentación del Telescopio de rayos cósmicos, con con el cual estarán trabajando durante los próximos meses como parte del área de difusión del proyecto anillo.

El evento fue resaltado por la prensa, como se puede ver en el siguiente artículo:
