Canada has made an enormous investment in the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), mostly in the LHC's experimental groups. Nevertheless, due to LHC's complex environment and the variety of new physics to search for, the experimentalists need theory guidance to best capitalize on this investment. In this proposal I describe how my team will contribute to the LHC's program in a unique way. By combining a sound theoretical background with experimental skills, we will develop the best strategies to extract the full potential from LHC's physics discoveries. This strategy integrates the LHC searches with other experiments searching for New Physics, such as the Dark Matter searches performed at the Sudbury facility in Ontario.

加拿大对大型强子对撞机（LHC）进行了大量投资，主要投资于LHC的实验组。然而，由于大型强子对撞机的复杂环境和需要寻找的新物理学的多样性，实验学家需要理论指导才能最好地利用这项投资。在这份提案中，我描述了我的团队将如何以独特的方式为大型强子对撞机项目做出贡献。通过将扎实的理论背景与实验技能相结合，我们将制定最佳策略，从大型强子对撞机的物理发现中充分发挥潜力。该策略将大型强子对撞机搜索与其他寻找新物理学的实验相结合，例如在安大略省萨德伯里设施进行的暗物质搜索。
