项目摘要

The University of Bristol proposes to carry out research into the fundamental laws of space, time, matter and force. The current theoretical description of physics at the smallest scales, the Standard Model, is known not to hold at energies greater than around 1TeV. By carrying out experiments at particle colliders, we will observe how and when the Standard Model breaks down; discover new models which accurate describe physics at these scales; measure the parameters of these models; and investigate their significance for cosmology and the study of the large-scale universe. This work will be carried out using a wide range of different experiments and studies.The experimental data supporting this programme will be obtained using the CMS and LHCb experiments at the CERN LHC, and the NA62 experiment at the CERN SPS. We will use these detectors to work both at the energy frontier, with sensitivity to new heavy particles, and the precision frontier, comparing the largest ever experimental data sets with the predictions of the Standard Model. Having built important components of these experiments, we will continue to operate and maintain the apparatus, and design and install upgraded equipment to further enhance their capabilities.We will design and construct new particle detectors and instruments, optimised for sensitivity, performance and cost. Along with new techniques we will develop in computing and data analysis, this technology will be used in the future to build new experiments at future colliders, and to solve practical problems in the security, medical and environmental sectors.The results of our research will be publicised via talks, media involvement and events, in order to enhance public understanding and appreciation of science. We will engage with schools wherever possible, in order to ensure the continued take-up of science subjects at school and university level.

布里斯托大学提议对空间、时间、物质和力的基本定律进行研究。目前对最小尺度物理学的理论描述，即标准模型，已知在能量大于1 TeV时不成立。通过在粒子对撞机上进行实验，我们将观察标准模型如何以及何时崩溃;发现在这些尺度下准确描述物理学的新模型;测量这些模型的参数;并研究它们对宇宙学和大尺度宇宙研究的意义。这项工作将利用各种不同的实验和研究来进行，支持这一方案的实验数据将利用欧洲核子研究中心LHC的CMS和LHCb实验以及欧洲核子研究中心SPS的NA 62实验来获得。我们将使用这些探测器在能量前沿（对新的重粒子敏感）和精度前沿（将有史以来最大的实验数据集与标准模型的预测进行比较）工作。在建造了这些实验的重要组件后，我们将继续操作和维护仪器，并设计和安装升级设备，以进一步提高其功能。我们将设计和建造新的粒子探测器和仪器，以优化灵敏度，性能和成本。沿着我们在计算和数据分析方面开发的新技术，该技术将在未来的对撞机上用于建立新的实验，并解决安全，医疗和环境领域的实际问题。我们的研究成果将通过讲座，媒体参与和活动进行宣传，以提高公众对科学的理解和欣赏。我们将尽可能与学校接触，以确保在中小学和大学继续开设科学科目。
