The major foci of the High Energy Physics Group at Rutgers University are: construction, operation and data analysis from the CMS experiment at the CERN collider to study pp interactions at 14 TeV; data analysis and operation of the CDF detector at Fermilab to study pp interactions at 2-trillion electron-volts (TeV); and implementing the chemical-vapor-deposition diamond detectors to monitor the CMS beam and measure collision luminosity. Broader Impacts of the program include significant work in QuarkNet throught the group's QuarkNet Center that summer workshops for high-school teachers on the Rutgers campus, and additionally participation in QuarkNet in the Chicago area, where Rutgers physicists participate in summer programs for high school students at Fermilab. Additionally the group is engaged in general outreach activities in New Jersey, including work with environmental activists on an energy conservation program.

罗格斯大学高能物理组的主要工作重点是：在欧洲核子研究中心对撞机上建造、运行和分析CMS实验的数据，以研究14 TeV的pp相互作用;在费米实验室分析和运行CDF探测器，以研究2万亿电子伏的pp相互作用;以及实施化学气相沉积金刚石检测器以监测CMS束并测量碰撞光度。 该计划的更广泛影响包括QuarkNet的重要工作，该小组的QuarkNet中心为罗格斯大学校园的高中教师举办夏季研讨会，以及在芝加哥地区参与QuarkNet，罗格斯大学的物理学家参加费米实验室的高中生夏季课程。 此外，该组织还在新泽西开展一般性的外联活动，包括与环保活动家合作开展一项节能计划。
