This proposal requests support for a group at the University of Cincinnati for a program of research and education in experimental elementary particle physics based on the BaBar experiment at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center (SLAC). They are also completing the analysis of a hadronic charm production experiment E791 at Fermilab.The main aim of BaBar is to study the origin of particle-antiparticle asymmetry (CP violation) as seen in the decays of neutral B mesons (B0s) and their antiparticles. The Standard Model of elementary particle interactions predicts such CP asymmetries. The BaBar experiment is designed to detect many of the B decay modes and thus to study the time-dependence of CP violation. In addition to the analysis contributions, the group is also involved with the operations and software development of the DIRC (Detector of Internally Reflected Cherenkov radiation).

该提案请求辛辛那提大学的一个小组支持基于斯坦福线性加速器中心 (SLAC) 的 BaBar 实验的实验基本粒子物理研究和教育计划。他们还在费米实验室完成对强子魅力产生实验 E791 的分析。BaBar 的主要目的是研究粒子反粒子不对称性（CP 破坏）的起源，如中性 B 介子 (B0s) 及其反粒子的衰变中所见。基本粒子相互作用的标准模型预测了这种 CP 不对称性。 BaBar 实验旨在检测许多 B 衰变模式，从而研究 CP 破坏的时间依赖性。除了分析贡献外，该小组还参与 DIRC（内反射切伦科夫辐射探测器）的运营和软件开发。
