Astroparticle Physics Online Masterclass built on the KASCADE Cosmic Ray Data Centre — •Victoria Tokareva, Katrin Link, Andreas Haungs, Jurgen Wochele, Doris Wochele, Frank Polgart, Donghwa Kang, Olena Tkachenko, and Paras Kundal for the Netzwerk Teilchenwelt collaboration — Institute for Astroparticle Physics, Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, Karlsruhe, Germany

The global pandemic of 2020 caused our group to explore our opportunities in organizing online outreach events to teach pupils and share our knowledge without spatial limitations. As part of these efforts, we developed an online masterclass built on the KASCADE Cosmic Ray Data Centre and gained first practical experience during the International Cosmic Day. Students at the age of 14-19 years from a school in Villach, Austria, took part in lectures on cosmic ray physics and data analysis and then consolidated the acquired skills in a hands-on part. By performing particle mass composition analysis on KASCADE data, the participants gained experience in using the KCDC platform, working in the JupyterHub environment, preprocessing data from a real astroparticle physics experiment, programming Python and performing exploratory data analysis. The talk will describe the content of the masterclass such as the analysis performed and the results obtained, as well as the choice of implementation tools (such as platform, programming language and libraries) and organizational aspects of the event.
