Create your own ATLAS experiment with 3D printing
Recreate the iconic ATLAS experiment using 3D printing!
Models are super useful when it comes to visualising in 3D the different components of an experiment, especially when you have to manipulate it to move elements. They also serve as prototypes that can be quickly modified on a small scale to find an optimal solution.
Here is a model of the ATLAS experiment composed of 400 parts assembled by physicist Jan Brajer. But this one is not quite a prototype, since, although designed based on a 3D model of ATLAS, it was this time made to be offered to Ludo, technical coordinator retiring after nine years of passionate work on the detector. Because behind each of the experiments at CERN is the passion and expertise of many people.
This 1:100 scale, highly detailed model was designed to capture the complexity and beauty of the experiment at CERN. The model is split into smaller parts, each representing individual detector systems. Perfect for 3D printing enthusiasts and science lovers alike!
