PI Neal Weiner Institution- NYU PHY-0449818 CAREER: Beyond the Minimal Dark Sector: Finding New Physics in Cosmology and Collider Abstract We now know that there in fact is physics beyond the standard model, in the form of dark matter, dark energy, and neutrino masses, but we have only begun to study these areas experimentally and theoretically. The PI intends to explore many topics including unexpected signals of the dark sector in terrestrial and cosmological experiments, sensitivity of neutrino masses to new forces, and interactions between the standard model and dark energy. By exploring what connections could exist between these apparently disparate fields - dark matter, dark energy, neutrino physics, collider physics - we gain insights into their possible nature, and find ways terrestrial and cosmological studies can compliment one another. The PI also intends to develop new course materials to teach the rapidly evolving details of this field. The outreach part of the proposal will involve the development of new interactive classroom demonstrations, aimed at high school students, in partnership with the Governor's School in North Carolina, a public summer school for academically or artistically advanced students.

PI Neal Weiner Institution- NYU PHY-0449818 CAREER：Beyond the Minimal Dark Sector：Finding New Physics in Cosmology and Collider摘要我们现在知道实际上存在着超越标准模型的物理学，以暗物质、暗能量和中微子质量的形式存在，但我们才刚刚开始从实验和理论上研究这些领域。PI打算探索许多主题，包括在地球和宇宙学实验中暗区的意外信号，中微子质量对新力量的敏感性，以及标准模型和暗能量之间的相互作用。通过探索这些明显不同的领域-暗物质，暗能量，中微子物理学，对撞机物理学-之间可能存在的联系，我们可以深入了解它们可能的性质，并找到地球和宇宙学研究可以相互补充的方法。PI还打算开发新的课程材料，以教授这一领域迅速发展的细节。该提案的外联部分将涉及与北卡罗来纳州的州长学校合作，针对高中生开发新的互动课堂演示，该学校是一所为学术或艺术水平高的学生开设的公立暑期学校。
