论文摘要
在过去的两年中,爱丽丝的各种现有的公共外展活动已适用于在线使用,其中包括良好的粒子物理大师班,但也包括对爱丽丝的虚拟访问。基于这些基础,在2021年举行了六个月的在线研讨会,其目标是在LHC上以典型的微型尺寸(约1:40)的规模设计一个爱丽丝探测器的乐高模型,并激励年轻人在粒子物理项目中长期在线合作。该模型的设计阶段花了半年的时间,并进行了常规的在线设计课程,并伴随着3D构造,探测器技术,爱丽丝的物理问题,虚拟爱丽丝访问和粒子物理大师班的输入。这个阶段为研究合作中的不同子项目的动态提供了第一手经验,并导致了一个模型,其中一个周末在一个周末的人工讲习班中由参与者组装的16 000多个零件。年轻的设计师在此期间进一步使用了在此构建过程中获得的经验,以在另一年期间优化该模型。
In the last two years various existing public outreach activities in ALICE have been adapted for online usage, this includes the well established particle physics masterclasses but also virtual visits to ALICE. Based on these foundations a six month online workshop was carried out in 2021 with the goal to design a LEGO model of the ALICE detector at the LHC at the scale of a typical minifigure (ca. 1:40) and to motivate young people for a long term online collaboration in a particle physics project. The design stage of the model took half a year with regular online design sessions accompanied by input on 3D construction, detector technology, the physics questions of ALICE, virtual ALICE visits, and particle physics masterclasses. This stage provided first-hand experience on the dynamics of working on different sub-projects in a research collaboration and resulted in a model with more than 16 000 parts that was assembled by the participants during one weekend in an in-person workshop. The experience gained during this construction has been used further by the young designers to optimise the model over the period of another year.
