中文摘要
这项授予华盛顿大学和康奈尔大学的合作奖资助了一种量热计探测器的开发,该探测器将用于测量μ子的异常磁矩。 这个量是基本的兴趣,因为最近的测量和粒子物理学标准模型的理论预测之间的差异。 测量μ介子的磁矩将大大提高精度。 如果这种差异得到证实,这将意味着存在新的亚原子粒子,迄今尚未发现,并将从根本上重塑我们对周围世界的理解。
英文摘要
This collaborative award to the University of Washington and Cornell University funds the development of a calorimeter detector that would be used to measure the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon. This quantity is of fundamental interest because of discrepancies between a recent measurement and theoretical predictions of the standard model of particle physics. The magnetic moment of the muon will be measured with greatly increased precision. If the discrepancy is confirmed, it would imply the existence of new subatomic particles, so far undetected, and would fundamentally reshape our understanding of the world around us.
