Particle Physics at the Energy and Intensity Frontiers

该奖项提供了三年的资金，以支持康奈尔大学从事高能物理计划的实验粒子物理学家团队。智力上的优势主要集中在大型强子对撞机和CMS上，但也包括完成现有设施(CLEO和CDF)的物理计划，以及未来ILC型探测器的技术开发项目。这一项目组合利用了小组成员的不同专业知识，同时平衡了他们的责任，使现有的努力自然结束，为研究生提供论文机会，为博士后和年轻教师提供职业发展，对大型强子对撞机物理输出产生重大影响，并为未来铺平道路。更广泛的影响将包括将大型强子对撞机物理学的挑战和兴奋带入他们广泛的外联计划中：面向当地的K-12学校，包括针对教师、教育工作者和高中生的校内项目和校外研讨会；面向普通公众；以及面向本科生。

This award provides three years of funding to support the team of experimental particle physicists engaged in the high energy physics program at Cornell University. The intellectual merit is focused primarily upon the LHC and CMS in particular, but also includes the completion of physics programs at existing facilities (CLEO and CDF) and a technology development project for future ILC-type detectors. This mix of projects exploits the varied expertise of group members while balancing their responsibilities to bring existing efforts to a natural close, to provide thesis opportunities to graduate students and career development for postdocs and young faculty, to have a major impact upon LHC physics output, and to pave the way for the future. The broader impacts will include bringing the challenge and excitement of LHC physics into their extensive program of outreach: to local K-12 schools, including both in-school programs and out- of-school workshops for teachers, educators, and high school students; to the general public; and to undergraduates.
