Take a Tour of a Detector!

by Clifford Johnson Department: Physics & Chemistry

There's a new website that allows you to tour CDF, the particle physics detector at Fermilab, in Illinois. Jenny Lee, who worked on the site, said that it is:

"a sort of `virtual tour' that takes the viewer through each section of a particle detector, and includes photos, interviews with physicists, and more. The site is up and running now".

The link to it is here. It looks great. Go and look, and spread the word about it!

(While we're on the subject, did you see the videos that take you inside the ATLAS detector inside the the soon-to-be-operating LHC? I posted about them here. Have a look.)
