This project has the following components:1) the US ATLAS detector construction project at the LHC, a 7 TeV on 7 TeV proton-proton collider under construction at the CERN laboratory in Geneva, Switzerland. This machine and its detectors will define the next energy frontier;2) the D0 experiment now undergoing a major upgrade at the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (Fermilab), a 1.8 TeV proton-antiproton collider, an experiment at the current energy frontier;3)the ZEUS experiment, at the electron-proton collider at DESY in Hamburg, Germany, which probes the structure of the proton with the world's highest energy electron microscope;4) the NuTeV experiment, that has successfully used a new neutrino beam at Fermilab, to probe the nucleon structure in a manner complementary to electrons;5) the MiniBoone construction project at Fermilab, which can provide new information on neutrino mass;6) the HiRes cosmic ray detector project in Dugway, Utah, which will detect cosmic rays at the highest energies yet seen in nature. 7) an innovative "e-bubble" project, which also includes a new education-outreach component through Quarknet. These activities are supported by the facilities of Columbia's Nevis Laboratories.

该项目有以下组成部分：1）在大型强子对撞机上的美国ATLAS探测器建造项目，这是一台正在瑞士日内瓦欧洲核子研究中心实验室建造的7 TeV质子对7 TeV质子对撞机。这台机器及其探测器将定义下一个能源前沿;2）D 0实验正在费米国家加速器实验室进行重大升级（费米实验室），一个1.8 TeV的质子-反质子对撞机，一个在当前能源前沿的实验; 3）ZEUS实验，在德国汉堡DESY的电子质子对撞机上进行，4）NuTeV实验，成功地利用费米实验室的新中微子束，以与电子互补的方式探测核子结构; 5）费米实验室的MiniBoone建设项目，它可以提供关于中微子质量的新信息;6）犹他州达格韦的HiRes宇宙射线探测器项目，它将探测到自然界中迄今所见的最高能量的宇宙射线。7)一个创新的“电子泡泡”项目，其中还包括通过Quarknet的一个新的教育推广部分。这些活动得到了哥伦比亚尼维斯实验室设施的支持。
