CERN today launched its Open Data Portal where data from real collision events, produced by experiments at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) will for the first time be made openly available to all.

Well this should make a lot of scientists happy. Especially the ones who doubt that they found the Higgs boson.

This looks interesting, but I am unsure whether my poor computer will handle it, Has anyone participated in this?

 

I thought it may help me to understand decay events better, to know what i am actually looking at in the data,

 

The folks at CERN are holding a particle collider simulation challenge which starts today. All you need to join is a browser. Find out more here: https://test4theory.cern.ch/challenge/
