点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

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.
