The CERN@school Mk1 detector mounted face up, lens cap removed (labelled)

Abstract

<p>The CERN@school Mk1 detector [1, 2] mounted face up in a clamp with the lens cap removed, showing: a) the retort stand; b) the boss; c) the clamp used to hold the detector in place; d) the detector's sensor element, exposed by removing the lens cap; e) the Mk1 detector; f) the mini-USB cable that connects the detector to the laptop; g) the high voltage cable. The axes indicate the relative orientation of the detector coordinate system, though the origin should be taken as the bottom-left corner of the sensor element.</p> <p>This figure is <strong>I000087</strong> in the CERN@school document inventory. A version without labels can be found in <strong>I000140</strong> [3].</p> <p>[1] X.
