This project reminds me of a similar one I participated in when I was in High School: https://eee.centrofermi.it/ https://eee.centrofermi.it/
Some students were sent to CERN in Geneva to build detectors (which were essentially sandwiches of copper strips immersed in an atmosphere of sulphur hexafluride and some kind of freon-like gas) hooked up to a custom ASIC.
I was tasked to check in with the logger PC and check if the gas flow was ok and if it was still logging etc...
The data was then sent to a central server and a map of the rays was built.
