Each day will usually comprise about two hours of lecture and three hours of lab. Thursday and Friday labs will consist of lecture demonstration construction projects which you will take with you when completed.
Mon, Tue, Wed will have introductory lectures, assembly, and use of cosmic ray detectors and cosmic ray e-lab. Feynman lectures (audio) on Newton's Universal Gravitation and Einstein's Curved Spacetime will be played during the afternoon labs. Lunch will be provided on site every day.
