Investigations in High Energy Physics

研究重点是强核力的定量研究。 使用量子色动力学研究基本粒子之间的强力，对于解释使用高能加速器的实验结果和测试量子色动力学作为基本粒子“标准模型”的核心组成部分的有效性至关重要。 计划中的研究将通过离散点网格来近似空间，并广泛使用计算机，还将有助于实现扩大大规模并行超级计算机的能力和建立一批精通计算物理学的数学物理学家的重要国家目标。

Research focussed on quantitative investigations of the strong nuclear forces will be performed. The study of the strong forces among elementary particles using quantum chromodynamics, the theory of the strong force, is of critical importance in interpreting the results of experiments using high energy accelerators and in testing the validity of quantum chromodynamics as a central component of the "Standard Model" of elementary particles. The planned research, which will approximate space by a discrete lattice of points and use computers extensively, will also contribute to the important national goal of extending the capabilities of massively parallel supercomputers and of building a pool of mathematical physicists skilled in state of the art of computational physics.
