International Muon Week (IMW) is held annually each spring. In IMW, high school students and teachers conduct cosmic ray experiments, troubleshoot, interact, and ask questions. Later, participants are able to discuss data and ask further questions through follow up Zoom connections. There are three choices of experiments: Time of Flight, Cosmic Ray Flux, and Muon Lifetime. We encourage users who have access to the QuarkNet Cosmic Ray e-Lab to perform a Time of Flight study with students. This study allows students to make measurements of the speed of muons as they pass through the Cosmic Ray Muon Detector (CRMD).
