How to build your own particle detector. DIY Project!

The scale of the detectors at the Large Hadron Collider is almost incomprehensible: They weigh thousands of tons, contain millions of detecting elements and support a research program for an international community of thousands of scientists. But particle detectors aren’t always so complicated. In fact, some particle detectors are so simple that you can make (and operate) them in your own home. The Continuously Sensitive Diffusion Cloud Chamber is one such detector. Originally developed at UC Berkeley in 19
