Particle Physics in the Era of Data

该奖项用于资助哈佛大学教授丽莎·兰德尔的研究活动。未来几年有望发现新的现象和粒子：在大型强子对撞机上，在暗物质实验中，在味觉和弱电部门的精密测试中。兰德尔教授的研究将集中在大型强子对撞机和暗物质模型的建立上。兰德尔教授还将继续讨论与超越标准模型的各种物理理论的预测有关的理论问题。高能物理界也已经看到，新的物理效应或新的奇异现象可能处于运动学上可以接触到的边缘。这对理论家和实验者都提出了挑战，要求两个群体都将独创性发挥到极限，以尽可能多地发现问题。因此，兰德尔教授将继续进行研究，其目的是发现大型强子对撞机实验的最大潜力，并制定一致的情景，以允许对理论建议进行最全面的测试。这项研究的更广泛影响是它与实验界的强烈互动，以及对将参与这一项目的初级科学家的培训。兰德尔教授还将继续参与科学的公共传播。

This award funds the research activities of Professor Lisa Randall at Harvard University. The next few years hold the promise of the discovery of new phenomena and particles: at the Large Hadron Collider, in dark-matter experiments, and in precision tests of flavor and the electroweak sector. Professor Randall's research will focus on LHC and dark-matter model building. Professor Randall will also continue to address theoretical issues related to predictions from various theories of physics beyond the Standard Model. The high-energy physics community has also been seeing that the new physics effects or new exotic phenomena might be at the edge of what is kinematically accessible. This poses challenges to both theorists and experimenters, requiring that both communities stretch ingenuity to the limits in order to uncover as much as possible. Accordingly, Professor Randall will continue to pursue research whose aim is to find the fullest potential of LHC experiments and to formulate consistent scenarios that will allow the most comprehensive tests of theoretical proposals. The broader impact of this research is its strong interaction with the experimental community, as well as the training of junior scientists who will be involved in this project. Professor Randall will also continue her involvement in the public communication of science.
