本文报道了石溪大学MARIACHI1项目的最新成果，这是一项探测和研究超高能量宇宙射线的独特努力。这是通过使用一种基于雷达技术和传统闪烁地面探测器的新型探测技术来实现的。利用宇宙射线和流星现象作为激励研究和教育活动的工具，为高中教师和学生提供了基于实践哲学学习的物理，工程和网络基础设施的创新实践模块。各级参与者都参与研究项目、研讨会和讲习班，在那里他们将学习通过移动技术使用MARIACHI所需的工具。
This paper reports on the latest efforts of the MARIACHI1 program at Stony Brook University, a unique endeavor that detects and studies ultra-high-energy cosmic rays. This is done by using a novel detection technique based on radar-like technology and traditional scintillator ground detectors. Using the phenomena of cosmic rays and meteors as vehicles to motivate research and educational activities, innovative hands-on modules in physics, engineering and cyberinfrastructure based on a learning by doing philosophy are offered to high school teachers and students. Participants at all levels are engaged in research projects, seminars, and workshops, where they will learn to use tools needed in MARIACHI by means of mobile technology.
