This dataset contains copies of the original data used in the background radiation measurement experiment reported in "CERN@school: demonstrating physics with the Timepix detector" [1].
The data were recorded with a CERN@school MX-10 particle camera (B06-W0212) and a CERN@school Mk1 detector (E09-W0092). Please see [1] for more details of the experimental methods used.
