This RUI award provides a small international travel grant to Professor Brandon Murakami at Rhode Island College. Professor Murakami is seeking to develop a computer code through which it will be possible to conduct studies that lie at the interface between two important themes in high-energy physics: supersymmetry (a mathematical symmetry that relates bosons and fermions to each other), and flavor (i.e., the repeating structure of quark and lepton generations in the standard model). Both represent extremely timely and cutting-edge topics, especially as the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN is beginning to take data.This small grant will enable the PI to develop and plan a research collaboration with faculty members at Nagoya University in Japan, one of whom is a former collaborator of the PI. As such, this proposal has not only intellectural merit but also significant broader impacts, not only for the research community who will be gaining another well-trained practitioner (especially as the LHC begins operations), but also for the RUI community where the PI conducts his research and teaches.

这个RUI奖为罗德岛学院的布兰登·穆拉卡米教授提供了一笔少量的国际旅行赠款。 村上教授正在寻求开发一项计算机代码，通过该代码可以进行研究，这些研究位于高能量物理学中的两个重要主题之间的界面：超对称性：超对称性（一种将玻色子和寓言相关的数学对称性与彼此相关），以及味道（即，Quark和Lepton Generations中的重复结构和标准模型的重复结构）。 两者都代表了极端和尖端的主题，尤其是当CERN的大型强子对撞机（LHC）开始获取数据。这项小赠款将使PI能够与日本Nagoya大学的教职员工开发和计划研究合作，其中之一是PI的前合作者。 因此，该提议不仅具有知识分子的优点，而且具有更大的广泛影响，不仅对于将获得另一个训练有素的从业者（尤其是在LHC开始运营的过程中）的研究界，而且对于PI进行了他的研究和教学的RUI社区。
