CAREER: Higher-Order Calculations for Precision and New Physics Studies at the Large Hadron Collider

这个项目将改进SM及其超对称扩展中的理论预测。这些改进是必要的，以便充分开发大型强子对撞机的潜力，解开对称破缺和质量产生的起源，并寻找和解开新物理的信号，如超对称。该项目包括计算量子场论中的高阶效应(辐射修正)，并将其纳入LHC过程的蒙特卡罗模拟，涉及Higgs和电弱规范扇区、顶夸克和SUSY粒子。该项目的教育和宣传部分包括三个部分：首先，将建立一个永久性的互动物理展览，将艺术与科学结合起来，让普通公众在一个鼓舞人心和非威胁性的环境中参与关于物理的对话。高中生和他们的老师，无论是科学的还是艺术的，都将积极参与新的展览展示的建设。其次，在大学物理入门课程中实施“同伴教学”，并对其有效性进行测量。最后，本科生将有机会体验粒子物理研究并为之做出贡献，使他们能够获得适用于粒子物理范围内外领域的技能。

This project will improve theoretical predictions within the SM and its supersymmetric extensions. These improvements are necessary in order to fully exploit the potential of the LHC to unravel the origin of symmetry breaking and mass generation, and to search for and disentangle signals of new physics, such as SUSY. The project involves the calculation of higher order effects in quantum field theory (radiative corrections), and the incorporation of these into Monte-Carlo simulations of LHC processes, involving the Higgs and electroweak gauge sector, the top quark, and SUSY particles. The education and outreach component of this project consists of three parts: Firstly, a permanent, interactive physics exhibition will be established, which will integrate Art with Science, to engage the general public in a dialog about physics in an inspiring and non-intimidating setting. High-school students and their teachers, both scientific and artistic oriented, will be actively involved in the construction of new exhibition displays. Secondly, 'Peer Instruction' will be implemented in introductory college physics courses, and its effectiveness will be measured. Finally, undergraduate students will be provided with an opportunity to experience and contribute to particle physics research, allowing them to acquire skills applicable to areas within and beyond the scope of particle physics.
