Elementary Particle Physics Using High Energy Accelerators

该提案要求支持华盛顿大学高能物理小组的研究计划，以继续他们在费米实验室的D 0探测器上的强子对撞机工作[1]和在瑞士日内瓦的欧洲核子研究中心实验室为LHC计划建造ATLAS探测器[2]。关于D 0实验，华盛顿小组主要负责目前正在进行的D 0探测器升级;特别是3级触发/数据采集系统和前向μ子系统。 本集团亦致力全面参与升级探测器的安装及调试工作。 2001年3月，D 0探测器计划恢复数据采集，该小组将继续主要负责L3触发器/数据采集和前向μ子系统的操作。 他们还致力于D 0的运行2物理程序，并将在顶部和希格斯物理组工作。在ATLAS实验中，这个组有关键的支持结构和ATLAS前μ子室的运动支架的设计的核心责任。 他们将建造总共96个前室，其中约48个将在2000年至2002年期间完工。 该小组承担了所有ATLAS μ子探测器控制系统设计的主要责任。 这项工作将从μ子测试束的控制系统的设计和实现开始。

This proposal requests support for the research program of the high energy physics group at the University of Washington to continue their hadron collider work on [1] the D0 detector at Fermilab and [2] on construction of the ATLAS detector for the LHC program to be run at the CERN laboratory in Geneva Switzerland.On the D0 experiment, the Washington group has majorresponsibility for the D0 detector upgrade currently under way; specifically, the Level 3 Trigger / Data Acquisition System and forward muon system. The group is also committed to full participation in the installation and commissioning of the upgraded detector. In March 2001 the D0 detector is scheduled to resume data taking, and this group will have an ongoing major responsibility for operation of both the L3 Trigger/DAQ and forward muon systems. They are also committed to D0's Run 2 physics program and will work in the top and Higgs physics groups.On the ATLAS experiment, this group has centralresponsibility for the design of the critical support structure and kinematic mounts for the ATLAS forward muon chambers. They will fabricate a total of 96 forward chambers, of which about 48 will be complete in the period 2000 - 2002. This group has assumed the lead responsibility for the design of the control system for all of the ATLAS muon detectors. This work will start with the design and implementation of a control system for the muon test beam.
