Atlas Experiment at the LHC

在该提案中，一个大学团体联盟要求对探测器仪器研发和综合教育计划提供支持。 这项工作是针对ATLAS探测器的设计，该探测器将在瑞士日内瓦的欧洲核子研究中心实验室的大型强子对撞机（LHC）上运行。 哥伦比亚大学将管理“伞式”赠款，并将合同分包给其他机构。 参与小组将根据其科学兴趣和技术技能及经验参与ATLAS的特定子组成部分。 在ATLAS的这一初步建议中，要求支持建立一个合作小组，以建造ATLAS跟踪系统的一部分。

In this proposal support for a detector instrumentation R&D and an integrated educational program is requested by a consortium of university groups. The work is directed toward the design of the ATLAS detector to be in operation at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at the CERN laboratory in Geneva, Switzerland. Columbia University will administer the `umbrella` grant with subcontracts to the other institutions. The participating groups will involve themselves with particular subcomponents of ATLAS, chosen according to their scientific interests and technical skills and experience. In this initial ATLAS proposal, support is requested for a subcontract to collaborating group for construction of part of the ATLAS tracking system.
