Plastic scintillator detectors give off light when hit by a particle. Come here to help assemble a small plastic scintillator detector and see it working. You'll also be able to see a replica of the scintillator detector that will be installed in the T2K neutrino experiment that is based in Japan.

The activity will last about 40 minutes and will take place two times per day (one in the morning, and one in the afternoon).
