Experimental High Energy Particle Physics

该奖项为东北大学实验高能物理组的强子对撞机物理计划提供持续支持，为期三年。知识价值来自发现和理解的新时代，它已经并将继续在粒子物理学领域取得进展。该小组从事两项大型实验：费米实验室Tevatron的Duplex实验和CERN大型强子对撞机的CMS实验。通过仔细平衡的努力，该小组计划继续为每个实验做出重大贡献，以澄清标准模型低质量希格斯粒子在DIGH的地位，并在CMS探索新物理学的戏剧性特征。更广泛的影响包括博士后助理和研究生的教育和指导，以及继续参与波士顿地区QuarkNet计划以及东北大学的合作教育计划，该计划允许该小组定期让本科生参与CERN的六个月项目。

This award provides continued support for the hadron collider-physics program of the experimental high-energy physics group at Northeastern University, Darien Wood - PI, for a three-year period. The intellectual merit follows from the new era of discovery and understanding which has and will continue to progress in the field of particle physics. The group works on two large experiments: the DØ experiment at the Fermilab Tevatron and the CMS experiment at the CERN Large Hadron Collider. With a carefully balanced effort, the group plans to continue to make major contributions to each experiment, to clarify the status of a Standard Model low-mass Higgs at DØ and to explore dramatic signatures of new physics at CMS. The broader impact includes the education and mentoring of postdoctoral associates and graduate students and continued involvement in the Boston Area QuarkNet program as well as the cooperative education program at Northeastern University which allows the group to routinely involve undergraduates in six-month projects at CERN.
