This project supports the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine (the “National Academies”), through the Board on Physics and Astronomy, to organize and conduct a decadal study of elementary particle physics (EPP) at the request of NSF and DOE. The study will assess the progress and developments in EPP over the past decade and explore promising new directions for the period 2022-2032. It will also discuss the international landscape for EPP and leading roles that the United States can play in this field in the future. The study will also evaluate how EPP could benefit from more fully engaging with other fields of research and the societal benefits flowing from EPP, including the training of a highly skilled workforce. Finally, the report will make recommendations on how to realize the full potential of this critical research area for the nation. This study will identify, articulate, and prioritize the scientific opportunities in elementary particle physics and will offer clear and broad guidance, both to those within the discipline and policymakers outside of the discipline. It will evaluate the recent past and future directions of the entire field by members from across the field, potentially leading to fresh insights and new perspectives on the key questions that drive the science. In addition, it will help identify the opportunities and challenges associated with pursuing interdisciplinary research, ultimately placing the field in the broader context of science.The final report will have a significant impact on the future of elementary particle physics across the field. It will identify new directions and new perspectives for the field and formulate guidelines for pursuing it to advance the science efforts in the United States and abroad. It will describe the impact that EPP has on other scientific fields, and along with roles that other fields play, or might play, in advancing EPP research. The committee will include scientists with broad expertise to analyze and demonstrate the impact of elementary particle physics and techniques in modern science and technology. Part of the report will be addressed to a lay audience to enhance the public understanding of the role of elementary particle physics in other sciences and society.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

该项目通过物理学和天文学委员会支持美国国家科学院、工程院和医学院（“国家科学院”）应NSF和DOE的要求组织和开展基本粒子物理学（EPP）的十年研究。该研究将评估资源增值计划在过去十年的进展和发展，并探讨2022-2032年期间有希望的新方向。它还将讨论EPP的国际格局以及美国未来在这一领域可以发挥的主导作用。该研究还将评估资源增值计划如何从更全面地参与其他研究领域中受益，以及资源增值计划带来的社会效益，包括培训高技能劳动力。最后，报告将就如何充分发挥这一关键研究领域的潜力提出建议。这项研究将确定，阐明和优先考虑基本粒子物理学的科学机会，并将为学科内和学科外的政策制定者提供明确和广泛的指导。它将评估来自整个领域的成员最近的过去和未来的方向，可能会导致对推动科学的关键问题的新见解和新观点。此外，它将有助于确定与追求跨学科研究相关的机遇和挑战，最终将该领域置于更广泛的科学背景下。最终报告将对整个领域的基本粒子物理学的未来产生重大影响。它将为该领域确定新的方向和新的视角，并制定指导方针，以推动美国和国外的科学工作。它将描述EPP对其他科学领域的影响，沿着其他领域在推进EPP研究方面所发挥或可能发挥的作用。该委员会将包括具有广泛专业知识的科学家，以分析和展示基本粒子物理学和技术在现代科学技术中的影响。该报告的一部分将针对外行观众，以提高公众对基本粒子物理学在其他科学和社会中的作用的理解。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并已被认为是值得通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估的支持。
