Elementary Particle Physics Using High Energy Colliders

华盛顿大学小组的这项提案讨论了两个强子对撞机实验的持续工作计划：费米国家加速器实验室Tevatron的D 0和大型强子对撞机（LHC）的ATLAS，欧洲核子研究中心，日内瓦。D 0实验的重点是物理分析，包括顶夸克和W玻色子研究的标准模型（SM）物理，底夸克（B）物理，包括罕见的衰变测量和希格斯粒子的搜索。随着对SM之外的物理学的研究，该小组将致力于寻找轻超对称粒子。该小组还将从事Run 2b硅跟踪探测器的设计、制造和安装工作。 在ATLAS上，该小组已经为前向μ子室系统制造了大量的漂移管，并将在CERN进行制造和安装。 该小组与教师保持教育/外展参与，参与QuarkNet和WALTA计划。该集团已成功地招募代表性不足的少数民族本科生的技术项目，并致力于继续这一努力。

This proposal from the University of Washington group discusses a program of continuing work on two hadron collider experiments: D0 at the Tevatron at the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory and ATLAS at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), CERN, Geneva. The focus on the D0 experiment is on the physics analysis including Standard Model (SM) physics of top quark and W boson studies, bottom quark (b) physics including rare decay measurements and the search for the Higgs particle. With studies for physics beyond the SM, the group will be working on searches for light Supersymmetric Particles. The group will also work on the design, fabrication and installation of the Run 2b Silicon Tracker Detector. On ATLAS, the group has already manufactured a large number of drift tubes for the Forward Muon Chamber system and will work on the fabrication and installation of the tubes at CERN. The group maintains an education/outreach involvement with teachers, participating in both the QuarkNet and WALTA programs. The group has been successful in recruiting underrepresented minority undergraduates for technical projects and is committed to continuing this effort.
