The Standard Model of Particle Physics describes the fundamental particles of which matter in the Universe is composed, and the interactions which bind these particles. It is one of the most precisely measured and validated theories which science has produced, and there has as yet been no measurement of fundamental particle interactions which is in conflict with its predictions. This project involving a large international team and highly sophisticated technology will search for evidence of physics beyond the Standard Model by looking for conversion of muons to electrons a reaction which the model prohibits. Observation of this process would be evidence of new particles and interactions, and would revolutionise our understanding of nature.

粒子物理学标准模型描述了构成宇宙中物质的基本粒子，以及将这些粒子结合在一起的相互作用。它是科学所产生的最精确测量和最有效的理论之一，到目前为止，还没有对基本粒子相互作用的测量与它的预测相冲突。这个项目涉及一个庞大的国际团队和高度复杂的技术，将通过寻找介子到电子的转换来寻找超越标准模型的物理证据，这是模型禁止的反应。对这一过程的观察将成为新粒子和相互作用的证据，并将彻底改变我们对自然的理解。
