The SAGE (Soviet-American Gallium Experiment) project is an international collaboration to extract and use 60 tons of the rare element gallium to detect low-energy neutrinos from the interior of the Sun under a mountain in Baksan, Russia. This experiment is perhaps the most critical of all solar neutrino experiments because the low-energy neutrinos are the dominant ones released in nuclear fusion reactions inside the Sun. The PI is generally credited as the "father of neutrino astrophysics." This one year award will permit the PI and his collaborators to enhance existing neutrino detection electronics and to consult directly with their Russian counterparts in Baksan on the progress of this experiment.

SAGE（苏美镓实验）项目是一项国际合作项目，旨在提取并使用 60 吨稀有元素镓来探测来自俄罗斯巴克桑山下太阳内部的低能中微子。 该实验可能是所有太阳中微子实验中最关键的，因为低能中微子是太阳内部核聚变反应中释放的主要中微子。 PI 通常被誉为“中微子天体物理学之父”。这个为期一年的奖项将使 PI 及其合作者能够增强现有的中微子探测电子设备，并直接与巴克桑的俄罗斯同行就该实验的进展进行磋商。
