This award provides partial support to the University of Kansas experimental particle physics group (KU) to continue studies with the Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) detector at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN in Geneva, Switzerland, the D0 experiment at Fermilab's Tevatron, data analysis from the CLEO experiment, efforts on international linear collider (ILC) detectors, using radio detection techniques for high-energy cosmic rays, and performing public outreach. The range of studies by KU form the basis for the high intellectual merit of the program since these studies have the potential to provide a greater understanding of matter and energy at the smallest distance scales and so address some of the most fundamental questions in science. The broader impacts of this proposed activity are also considerable. Graduate students and postdocs will receive extensive training. The group also has a strong record of success in undergraduate research and will continue such involvement. The Quarked! Project, started by Professor Alice Bean in 2004, as well as the QuarkNet program provide an important outreach focus as will the continuation of the program to disseminate research findings via the Internet with web sites aimed at different communities.

该奖项向堪萨斯大学实验粒子物理小组(KU)提供部分支持，以继续研究瑞士日内瓦欧洲核子研究中心(CERN)大型强子对撞机(LHC)的紧凑型Muon螺线管(CMS)探测器、费米拉实验室Tevatron的D0实验、CLEO实验的数据分析、利用高能宇宙射线的无线电探测技术研制国际线性对撞机(ILC)探测器的工作以及开展公共宣传活动。KU的研究范围构成了该计划高度智力价值的基础，因为这些研究有可能在最小的距离尺度上提供对物质和能量的更好理解，从而解决一些最基本的科学问题。这项拟议活动的更广泛影响也是相当大的。研究生和博士后将接受广泛的培训。该小组在本科生研究方面也取得了很好的成绩，并将继续参与其中。夸克人！2004年由Alice Bean教授发起的项目以及QuarkNet方案提供了一个重要的外联重点，该方案将继续通过因特网利用针对不同社区的网站传播研究成果。
