Outreach
The DarkSide Collaboration offers general public the opportunity to approach the fascinating world of Physics and Science.
The DarkSide masterclass is a set of lectures and exercises addressed to High School students. They are organized in two Levels, Level 1 and Level 2, corresponding to two slightly different levels of complexity.
First Part: the first part of the masterclass a set of slides about Dark Matter and WIMPs, together with a description of the experiment. A few videos and a few comments are included. Watching the DS-20k promotional video is also foreseen during the masterclass. The video can be either watched in between the two lectures or be sent to the participants before the masterclass.
You can find the video here.
Second Part: the second part of the masterclass includes two exercises (based on real data from DarkSide-50!) which can be performed either using Google Spreadsheets or Python coding, depending on the users preference.
