DO's+December+3rd

Dec. 3, 07__** The first part of class DL gave us about five minutes to read the e-mail he sent us and then after everyone did he talked to us about it and also answering question. The e-mail was about our final exam and what is was to be composed of. The exam is going to be many Milestone reports; one or more if you have a partner, then however many Milestones you completed on your own without your partner, although those will most likely be pretty close to your partners.

Today I started a somewhat long but easy project that I've created for myself. I've decided that I'm going to start at the beginning of the Cosmic Ray e-lab and go to and read almost every single link that the site has to offer. I'm doing this because I still don't feel like I'm understanding Cosmic Rays as well as I should, so what better way to try to overcome that then by reading and taking notes on most everything there.

Finally, Joe brought in his permission slip so we both can now go to the Quarknet Center during school. We can't go today since we don't have an appointment, but we're really looking forward to these next few days going over to the lab and getting acquainted with the detectors and equipment even better.

__**Dec. 6, 07**__ At first, we went to class today, but DL gave us the suggestion of coming to Quarknet to see if we could get the detectors up by ourselves. We took his and advice and at first try we we unsuccessful in getting the data to show the way we wanted, but after a couple minutes of fiddling around with it we got it to work.

__**Dec. 7, 07**__ Today was a very unsuccessful day. At school DL explained to us how coincidences work and then gave us instructions how to set are DAQ board to double or two-fold coincidence. Upon arriving at Quarknet, we were pump to get some work done but it seemed that DL left out some information on his instructions, so we couldn't figure out how to set the board to double coincidence. The whole day we looked through the user's manual to see if we could figure it out, but to no avail.
