Open day at Research and Technology Center for Detector Physics and accelerator ELSA

A special open day took place on 29 June 2024 at the Research and Technology Center for Detector Physics (FTD) and the accelerator ELSA at the University of Bonn. Visitors could enjoy lectures, lab tours, workshops to build their own particle detectors, and more. A special highlight during the open day were guided tours of the ELSA accelerator, which is also used to test new technologies developed for the use in particle detectors, for example at CERN in Geneva and KEK in Japan.
