The Chesapeake Section of the American Association of Physics Teachers (CSAAPT) is convening a meeting at Jefferson Lab to learn about the lab's research initiatives and take tours of the accelerator facilities. The objective is to equip physics educators with valuable insights to integrate into their classroom teaching. We are experiencing 150 or more physics instructors of all levels (K12, community colleges, universities) from all over Virginia, Maryland, Delaware, and the District of Columbia.
The 16th edition of the Pisa Meeting on Advanced Detectors will be held in La Biodola, Isola d'Elba, Italy, from May 26 to June 1, 2024. We are planning to organize the meeting around the following sessions:
Detectors Techniques for Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics
Jefferson Lab is organizing a four day tutorial course based on Geant4 version 11.2. It will cover all the application domains including high energy and nuclear physics, astrophysics and space engineering, medical applications, and newly arising industrial applications.
The lectures will cover all aspects of the toolkit of Geant4 version 11.2 from basic installation through advanced topics including multi-threading and variance reduction options, and will be interspersed with hands-on sessions that build a progressively more complex application extensible to real use. The course...
