卡迪夫第六中學Cardiff Sixth Form College學生參觀歐洲核子研究組織
卡迪夫第六中學的物理學學生有一次難得的機會訪問瑞士日內瓦,這是他們A Level學習的一部分。所有人都非常喜歡這次旅行-非常感謝阿維拉-瓊斯夫人和詹金斯先生對這次旅行進行協調和陪伴。
在歐洲核子研究組織(CERN),歐洲核研究組織,物理學家和工程師正在探索宇宙的基本結構。他們使用世界上最大,最複雜的科學儀器來研究物質的基本成分-基本粒子。使粒子以接近光速的方式碰撞在一起。該過程為物理學家提供了有關粒子如何相互作用的線索,並提供了對自然基本定律的洞察力。
學生們也有機會參觀了聯合國,參觀了人權與文明聯盟會議室,理事會會議廳和薩爾·德·佩斯·珀杜斯大街,參觀了紅十字會與紅新月會國際博物館-關於人道主義冒險的展覽,提供了人道主義行動的歷史視圖。此外,學生們參觀了百達翡麗博物館,也被稱為“製表聖殿”,經歷了五個世紀的製表歷程。
學生和教職員工在Edelweiss餐廳享受傳統的瑞士美食,而在raclette和奶酪火鍋上用餐時的娛樂活動則是傳統的瑞士歌曲和悠悠球。
STUDENTS VISIT CERN
Physics students at Cardiff Sixth Form College had the incredible opportunity to visit Geneva, Switzerland as part of their A Level studies. The trip was thoroughly enjoyed by all - a big thank you goes to Mrs Avila-Jones and Mr Jenkins for coordinating and chaperoning the trip.
At CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research, physicists and engineers are probing the fundamental structure of the universe. They use the world's largest and most complex scientific instruments to study the basic constituents of matter – the fundamental particles. The particles are made to collide together at close to the speed of light. The process gives the physicists clues about how the particles interact, and provides insights into the fundamental laws of nature.
Students also had the opportunity to have a tour of the UN visiting the Human Rights and Alliance of Civilizations room, council chamber and the Salle des Pas Perdus, visited the International Museum of the Red Cross and the Red Crescent - an exhibition on the humanitarian adventure, offering a view of the history of humanitarian action. Furthermore, students visited the Patek Philippe Museum also known as the “Temple to Watchmaking” for a unique journey through five centuries of watchmaking.
Students and staff enjoyed a traditional Swiss meal at the Edelweiss Restaurant, here the entertainment while dining on raclette and fondue was traditional Swiss songs and yodelling.
