Building ATLAS with LEGO

A new LEGO model of the ATLAS detector has been developed to aid and enhance educational outreach. Comprising over 21,000 LEGO elements and measuring over 1 m in length, this accurate 1/50 scale model depicts ATLAS as it will appear in the High-Luminosity LHC era. Cutaway walls clearly reveal every component of the real detector, from the muon chambers to the ITk Strip Detector and Pixel Sensors at the very heart of ATLAS. A fully modular structure facilitates group building events and the exploration of individual detector components. The accompanying CAD model, parts list, and detailed step-by-step instructions will allow this engaging and accurate LEGO representation to serve as a powerful tool for demystifying particle physics at CERN and inspiring future generations.
