Major Resource Support for the Particle Physics Group at the Université de Montréal

蒙特雷亚尔大学粒子物理组的基础设施项目(GPP/UOFM)维护着支持蒙特利尔大学(UOFM)和劳伦斯大学(LU)研究人员研究项目的设施。该研究计划涉及来自GGP/UFM和LU的8名赠款共同申请者和一些主要用户。该资源为探测器、读出电子学、触发器、数据采集和探测器束流测试的建设和研发提供基础设施和技术支持。它还提供了计算支持。资源设施包括一个电子和机械车间，以及直接获得由R.J.A.L实验室串列加速器提供的质子和中子束。它们的能力得到了CFI支助的帮助(UDEM获得340万美元)，从而建造了洁净室、用于探测器测试和研究的新的中子束生产线、半导体试验台以及电子和机械车间的升级。各种技术和专业资源被组织成一个支持单位：部分由大学和工业合同支持的技术小组(GT)。GPP/UOFM实验员活跃在三个实验中：i)LHC的ATLAS，CERN II)美国斯坦福SLAC的Babar，iii)在SNO实验室学习毕加索。路易斯安那大学的实验者们活跃在SNO实验室的四个实验中：I)EXO，II)SNO+，III)HALO和IV)毕加索。该资源也被来自UOM其他系(物理学、生理学)的小组以及来自加拿大和世界其他大学的小组使用，例如Veritas和POLARBEAR(McGill)、ILC(Carleton、亚琛大学德国、美国康奈尔大学、CEA Saclay、伯克利、Max-Plank慕尼黑研究所、TIGRESS(TRIUMF、McMaster、Laval、Guelph)、TRAY(TRIUMF York-UK)、Alpha(TRIUMF、CERN)、医学物理-液体Xenon PET原型(TRIUMF)。来自GPP/UOFM和蒙特利尔魁北克大学(UQAM)的理论家通过参与大型强子对撞机物理的现象学研究，与实验小组合作。

The infrastructure program of the Particle Physics Group at the Université de Montréal (GPP/UofM) maintains facilities supporting the research program of researchers from the University of Montreal (UofM) and from Laurentian University (LU). The research program involves 8 grant co-applicants from the GGP/UofM and LU and a number of main users. The resource provides the infrastructure and technical support for construction and R&D for detectors, readout electronics, trigger, data acquisition and detectors beam testing. It also provides a computing support. The resource facilities consist of a electronics and mechanical workshops, as well as direct access to proton and neutron beams delivered by the Tandem accelerator of the R.J.A. Lévesque Laboratory. Their capabilities have been augmented with the help of a CFI support ($3.4 Millions for UdeM) which allowed the construction of clean rooms, a new neutron beam line for detectors testing and study, a semiconductor test bench and an upgrade of the electronics and mechanical workshops. The various technical and professional resources are organized as a support unit: The Groupe Technologique (GT) that is partially supported by the university and industrial contracts.The GPP/UofM experimentalists are active in three experiments: i) ATLAS at LHC, CERN ii) BaBar at SLAC, Stanford USA, studying the iii) PICASSO at the SNO laboratory. The LU experimentalists are active in four experiments at the SNO laboratory: i) EXO, ii) SNO+, iii) HALO and iv) PICASSO. The resource is also used by groups from other UofM departments (physics, physiology) and by groups from other universities in Canada and in the world such as VERITAS and POLARBEAR (McGill) , ILC (Carleton, Aachen University-Germany, Cornell-US, CEA Saclay, Berkeley, Max-Plank Institute Munich, TIGRESS (TRIUMF, McMaster, Laval, Guelph), TACTIC (TRIUMF York-UK), ALPHA (TRIUMF, CERN), Medical physics-Liquid Xenon PET prototype (TRIUMF). Theorists from GPP/UofM and from the University of Quebec in Montreal (UQAM) collaborate with the experimental groups through their participation to phenomenological studies of physics at LHC energies.
