MRS for subatomic physics at the University of Victoria

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

This grant request is for the continued salary support of two highly-skilled individuals based at the University of Victoria who are an essential resource for subatomic physics and accelerator physics projects in Canada. The detector technologist and electronics technologist have made crucial contributions to flagship Canadian subatomic and accelerator physics projects, and their expertise is needed to maintain existing detector systems and to help develop new systems, in collaboration with subatomic physicists across Canada. Research programs that have benefitted from these individuals include ATLAS, T2K, SuperB, ALTAIR/STARCaL, International Linear Collider, and ARIEL. The MRS at UVic leverages resource investments from TRIUMF (3 staff) and the University of Victoria (administrative assistance) as part of the Victoria Subatomic Physics and Accelerator Research Centre (VISPA).
