This is a three-year continuing grant in the Research Opportunities for Women Program, for support for the research of Professor Usha Mallik, University of Iowa, Iowa City. Professor Mallik will perform studies of weak decays of charm mesons using data from the Mark III detector at SLAC, and work on software development for the ZEUS detector at the HERA collider in Hamburg, Germany. The research done by Professor Mallik will provide new information on the fundamental forces among elementary particles. The SLAC data studies will focus on the weak forces between charm and other quarks, and the ZEUS experiment on the electromagnetic and weak forces contributing to the structure of the proton.

这是妇女研究机会项目的一项为期三年的持续拨款，用于支持爱荷华市爱荷华大学的Usha Mallik教授的研究。Mallik教授将使用SLAC的Mark III探测器的数据对粲介子的弱衰变进行研究，并为德国汉堡的HERA对撞机ZEUS探测器开发软件。马利克教授所做的研究将为基本粒子之间的基本力提供新的信息。SLAC的数据研究将集中在粲夸克和其他夸克之间的弱力，ZEUS实验将集中在对质子结构有贡献的电磁力和弱力。
