Spotlight on the University of Oregon QuarkNet Center: Located in Eugene, the center hosted its 15th summer QuarkNet workshop in 2016. With LIGO's recent gravitational wave discoveries, the workshop focused primarily on this topic, giving teachers the chance to learn what is known about these waves…

Spotlight on Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory: For QuarkNet, Fermilab is not only home for the Fermilab/UChicago QuarkNet Center but also one of our two major hubs. (The other is Notre Dame.) Three of our staff and our spokesperson call it home, and two staff are Fermilab users. The…

CIMA problems   Problem Comment/solution Cannot find "Z" candidate to check off. This has been replaced by "NP" for "Neutral Particle". Check this instead. I check NP but mass does not come up. You must get mass for dilepton events from iSpy-WebGL. See…

Spotlight on the Kansas State University QuarkNet Center: Located in "The Little Apple" (Manhattan, KS), the center is very active serving primarily teachers from rural Kansas. In March 2016, the center hosted a masterclass for 8 teachers and 27 students, with one more teacher and 18 tudents…

Spotlight on Upcoming Events: Spring is upon us! We have great March activities; read about International Masterclasses and International Muon Week below. Look for a CMS e-Lab Poster Challenge in April and May. Plan for summer. It's not far away! Mentors, please be sure your responses…

Spotlight on the University of Washington QuarkNet Center: In August of 2016, this center held a three-day cosmic ray studies workshop open to both teachers and high school students. During the workshop, the four teachers and 20 students in attendance had a chance to learn how the detectors…
