DUE TO THE CURRENT SITUATION REGARDING THE COVID-19, FIRA DE BARCELONA HAS DECIDED TO CANCEL THE 2020 EDITION. WE WILL KEEP THE INFORMATION UPDATED HERE.
The workshop "Quarks: the bricks of matter" will be sttopping by the Espai Ciencia at the fair "Saló de l'Ensenyament 2020".
The workshop is an activity based in a 3D puzzle designed by CERN, where students from all ages will learn about the fundamental particles of the Standard Model, their properties and how they combine. Researchers will explain how quarks and antiquarks combine to form protons, neutrons and other particles.

Quarks: the building blocks of matter
Quarks: the building blocks of matter is an activity based on a puzze devised at CERN. Its aim is to introduce to the students the laws that allow quarks to combine in order to form protons and neutrons, which constitute atomic nuclei, as well as other more exotic hadrons that are part of our Standard Model of particles.
This activity can be adapted to the ages of the students by varying the complexity of the learning goals, which include the identification of the fundamental particles that appear on the Standard Model, their properties and the laws that dictate their interaction and how these particles combine into more complex ones.
Recommended ages: from 10 to 18 years old.
