February 20
Today I arrived at Quarknet at 3:40 and do not have a great deal of time to work because of an appointment, but I am going to plan on uploading a data set of only cosmic rays into ManyEyes and take a look around with many different parameters to try to notice any consistencies or any interesting things that pop out. Here is the uploaded data that I will be analyzing in Many Eyes. Here is just one representation of the data that shows how cosmic rays are uniquely present:  Notice that the line starts at 40 GeV, as I cut all the smaller massed particles that I had previously deemed out of place. Now I can begin to look at all the different parameters and hopefully find an interesting point.

Here is a graph that I would like to look into. It is a graph that show mass and momentum, and it really is not what I would expect to find.  Notice that within this group of alleged cosmic rays, just about all of them have negligible momentum values. As the detector is supposedly baffled by cosmic rays and record improperly the true momentum, it should be zero for each value, but it clearly is not. I would like to pursue this answer but unfortunately my time today is limited.
