## Project Description
|
|
|
|
|
|
This project has the purpose of generating 3D animations of ALICE particle collision events using data obtained from CERN's Open Data Portal. ALICE stands for "A Large Ion Collider Experiment" and it is a particle detector inside the LHC - Large Hadron Collider -, the world's largest and highest-energy particle collider, located beneath the France–Switzerland border. CERN stands for *Organisation européenne pour la recherche nucléaire*, which is French for European Organization for Nuclear Research, and it is the home of LHC. CERN's Open Data Portal is an open online platform that contains data files from particle physics; those include the ESDs - Event Summary Data files -, which hold information about ALICE events and are of great help making the animations look like real representations of such events.
