Wayne State University continues to focus its research effort on charm physics at the Cornell CESR storage ring. The group has participated in all recent CLEO experimental versions and continues to work extensively on CLEO physics analysis. The group has led the analysis of the rare Do decay D - Ks , demonstrated a novel method of measuring the tracking efficiency of CLEO to very high precision with the data, and developed a novel method for observing beam-beam interactions and measuring beam parameters at e+e- colliders using beamstrahlung radiation. The group is currently focusing on the operation, maintenance and physics of CLEO-c. Work on the innovative beamstrahlung monitor continues, with an eye toward optimization of delivered luminosity at e+e- colliders. Wayne State runs a very successful outreach REU/RET program which promotes undergraduate and younger student interest in careers in science, technology, and engineering, especially among the underrepresented, and makes connections with K/12 teachers. Students and teachers make a significant contribution to the research effort, and the WSU group counts as current members two students who are alumni of the program.

韦恩州立大学继续把研究重点放在康奈尔大学CESR储存环的魅力物理上。 该小组参加了所有最近的CLEO实验版本，并继续广泛开展CLEO物理分析工作。 该小组领导了对罕见的Do衰变D-Ks的分析，展示了一种测量CLEO跟踪效率的新方法，该方法具有非常高的数据精度，并开发了一种新方法，用于观察束-束相互作用并使用束辐射测量e+e-对撞机的束参数。 该小组目前的重点是CLEO-c的运行、维护和物理学。 创新的束辐射监测器的工作仍在继续，着眼于优化电子+电子对撞机的亮度。 韦恩国家运行一个非常成功的推广REU/RET计划，促进本科生和年轻学生在科学，技术和工程职业的兴趣，特别是在代表性不足，并与K/12教师的连接。 学生和教师为研究工作做出了重大贡献，WSU集团将两名校友视为当前成员。
