Week+of+Monday+March+10th

=Monday, March 10th, 2008= Today we listened to AL's presentation on AFM and DNA. We then supplied him with a list of things to improve on. =Tuesday, March 11th, 2008= My project so far includes me primarily using OGRE. I have an assignment that I am working on right now. I am right now comparing and contrasting different graphs and making cuts to those graphs. What CMS is primarily about is working with particle physics. We are looking to see what these particles are made up of. Now the problem is, is that CMS isn't up yet, it hasn't been built fully. So what I am working on is all hypothetical information. What should happen and what probably will. =Wednesday, March 12th, 2008= Wikispace wasn't working today. =Thursday, March 13th, 2008= =Friday, March 14th, 2008=

MasterClass:
We learned about the Z particle decays, and about Taus, Muons, Electrons, and Quarks. We took a tour of Jordan Hall at Notre Dame. We worked on an online database with Z particles in groups of two. You can see what we worked with here. And I went to a video conference after the class left where we took a test and reviewed what we learned that day. Overall it was a very interesting and exciting day.
