This award is funded under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (Public Law 111-5). This three-year award will fund the continued research of the CSUDH group at the Super-Kamiokande (Super-K) neutrino observatory and nucleon decay experiment including efforts involving the T2K long-baseline neutrino oscillation project. They will continue their studies on neutron- antineutron oscillations, will work on new nucleon decay analyses and will participate in Super-K low energy, atmospheric neutrino, and particle astrophysics research. The broader impact of the program includes involving several CSUDH undergraduate students. This project will also expand research options to students to include the accelerator-based particle beam studies with T2K. This project will have broader impacts by allowing the continued involvement of a student body that draws a majority of its members from groups that are underrepresented in the sciences in ground breaking fundamental research.

该奖项是根据2009年美国复苏和再投资法案（公法111-5）资助的。这个为期三年的奖项将资助CSUDH小组在Super-Kamiokande（Super-K）中微子天文台和核子衰变实验的继续研究，包括涉及T2 K长基线中微子振荡项目的努力。他们将继续研究中子-反中子振荡，进行新的核子衰变分析，并将参与超K低能、大气中微子和粒子天体物理学研究。该计划的更广泛的影响包括涉及几个CSUDH本科生。该项目还将扩大学生的研究选择，包括基于加速器的粒子束研究与T2 K。该项目将通过允许学生团体的持续参与而产生更广泛的影响，该学生团体的大多数成员来自科学领域代表性不足的群体，从事开创性的基础研究。
