OCDL

P2.13 ⋅ ALICE - Interact = Find out more about the ALICE experiment by taking part in activities for children and adults that include: building a model of the experiment out of cardboard or Lego, seeing a supermodel of one of the experiment's detectors...

P2.15 ⋅ ALICE exhibition = Come and watch a short film about the ALICE experiment, see real particle-detector components, and find out about the methods and technologies that are used to detect and identify particles. Physicists w

P2.10 ⋅ ALICE experiment = Visit the LHC tunnel and go inside the ALICE experiment, which recreates and studies a state of matter that is thought to have existed in the first moments of the universe. Back from this underground...

P2.16 ⋅ ALICE presentations - Interact = Come and listen to these presentations, which alternate with the "Fun with physics" show, to learn more about CERN, its accelerators and experiments, and more specifically about the ALICE experiment...

P2.14 ⋅ CAD, virtual reality - Play = Come and see presentations and explanations of the CAD (computer-aided design) and virtual-reality tools used at CERN, including the software needed to design and produce 3D models of the components...

P2.17 ⋅ Fun with physics - Play = Marvel at these simple but entertaining experiments, often bordering on the magical, which demonstrate different states of matter and magnetism in a fun way.

P2.12 ⋅ Virtual reality - Play = Virtual-reality headsets will offer visitors the chance to see the LHC accelerator, a detector and the Data Centre up close.

P2.11 ⋅ Particle-identity game - Play = Take a short quiz to find out which elementary particle fits your personality best. After the quiz, you can collect a pin with your particle and compare your particle personality with others...
