9511583 Huber Research will be carried out in muon-catalyzed fusion, specifically on the formation rates of molecular muon-hydrogen- hydrogen systems for different isotopes of hydrogen and the importance of molecular resonances which greatly enhance the molecular formation process. Experimental work will be carried out at the TRIUMF laboratory in Canada. A computer simulation code will be written and applied to analysis of the data produced. Research in this areas will advance our understanding of the molecular processes involved, with possible application of this technology to more precise tests of quantum electrodynamics, low energy tests of quantum chromodynamics, and extending to future development of an intense source of neutrons for testing materials and, more speculatively, to large-scale energy production. Education of undergraduate students is a central component of this grant.***

小行星9511583 将对μ子催化聚变进行研究，特别是对不同氢同位素的分子μ子-氢-氢系统的形成速率以及大大增强分子形成过程的分子共振的重要性进行研究。 实验工作将在加拿大的TRIUMF实验室进行。 将编写一个计算机模拟代码，并将其用于分析所产生的数据。 这一领域的研究将促进我们对所涉及的分子过程的理解，并可能将这项技术应用于更精确的量子电动力学测试，量子色动力学的低能测试，并扩展到未来开发用于测试材料的强中子源，更推测地，大规模能源生产。 本科生教育是这项补助金的核心组成部分。
