LHCb International MasterClasses 2017

   In 2017, the Romanian LHCb group participated in the "LHCb International Masterclasses" programme organized by International Particle Physics Outreach Group (IPPOG) in collaboration with CERN. The activities will take place in the campus of "Ştefan cel Mare" University of Suceava.

   The activity addresses high-school pupils from 9th to 12th grade and young students in the field of Natural Sciences. It facilitates them the contact with the research environment from campuses in Măgurele (close to Bucharest) and Suceava. During this particular day(s), students have the opportunity to attend lectures of elementary particle physics, to visit scientific infrastructure belonging to the Măgurele/Suceava campus and to participate in the analysis of data acquired in the high energy experiment LHCb at LHC. The students will have the opportunity to discuss their results in a video-conference with researchers from CERN as well as with students from other scientific centres participating to the International Masterclasses programme. Their participation is recognized and certified through participation diplomas.
