MARIACHI: REU Data Analysis

The MARIACHI Teaching Lab

Located in the former control room of the Stony Brook Nuclear Structure Laboratory, this facility is available to host classes from middle school through high school. Programs can be tailored to the interests of teachers and students. The Riverhead HS Research class visited the Teaching Lab for the second time on January 8, 2008. A research class from Half Hollow Hills visited on March 8th. A physics class from Smithtown HS visited June 3rd, while two other Smithtown classes analyzed cosmic ray data and posted results here. These activities and more have been included in the offerings of the Physics Teaching Lab.
