Carleton Technical Team for Subatomic Physics Research

卡尔顿亚原子物理仪器技术小组由四名技术人员和相关设施组成，可用于亚原子物理研究的探测器的开发、制造、原型制作、大规模集成和安装。所要求的预算将继续资助4名技术人员、2名设计师；电子专家；还有一名在工厂工作的技术人员。卡尔顿集团继续支持加拿大各地亚原子物理学的一些重要项目，有或没有卡尔顿研究人员的参与。这些项目包括与SNOLAB关系密切的DEAP、EXO和NEWS项目；ATLAS升级和ILC发展工作与TRIUMF和CERN的密切联系；以及凯旋的ARIEL项目。在过去三年中，技术小组为许多其他项目作出了贡献，并将在未来几年继续支持加拿大各地的亚原子物理项目。这项MRS拨款请求的支持者和维多利亚大学的MRS拨款请求，以及女王大学正在进行的拨款，将继续在共同优先委员会的管理下运作。理事会的职能是通过审查和确定新申请的优先次序，宣传和便利利用资源管理基金提供的设施。委员会根据NSERC的标准标准对这些请求进行排序。各研究所的资源管理经理与理事会合作，利用这一排名来分配资源，因为正在进行的任务已经完成。通过定期会议和经理的正式更新，董事会获得了MRS员工正在进行的工作的进展和状况的信息。目前的董事会成员有：Tom Mattison -主席（UBC）， Blair Jamieson -秘书（温尼伯），Akira Konaka (TRIUMF), Mike Roney （IPP总监/维多利亚），Brigitte Vachon（麦吉尔），Mark Boulay（女王），Kevin Graham -卡尔顿经理（卡尔顿）和Dean Karlen -维多利亚经理（维多利亚）。

The Carleton Technical Group for Instrumentation for Subatomic Physics consists of four technical personnel, and associated facilities, that allow for development, fabrication, prototyping, and large-scale integration and installation of detectors for subatomic physics research. The budget requested will continue to fund the four technical personnel, two designers; an electronics specialist; and a technician, who work at the facility.The Carleton Group continues to support a number of important projects in subatomic physics across Canada both with and without participation from Carleton researchers. Included in these projects are the DEAP, EXO, and NEWS projects with close ties to SNOLAB; the ATLAS upgrade and ILC development work with close associations at TRIUMF and CERN; and the ARIEL project at TRIUMF. During the past three years the Technical Group has contributed to a number of additional projects and will continue to support subatomic physics projects across Canada in the coming years.The proponents of this MRS grant request and the MRS request by the University of Victoria, along with the ongoing grant at Queen’s University, will continue to operate under the administration of the common Prioritization Board. The function of the Board is to advertise and facilitate access to the MRS facilities by reviewing and prioritizing new requests for use of the facilities provided by the MRS funds. The Board ranks these requests based on standard NSERC criteria. The MRS managers at the institutes, working with the Board, use this ranking to assign MRS resources as they becomes available as on-going tasks are completed. Through regular meetings and formal updates from the managers, the Board is given information regarding the progress and status of on-going work undertaken by the MRS employees. The current board members are: Tom Mattison – Chair (UBC), Blair Jamieson – Secretary (Winnipeg), Akira Konaka (TRIUMF), Mike Roney (IPP Director/Victoria), Brigitte Vachon (McGill), Mark Boulay (Queen’s), Kevin Graham – Carleton manager (Carleton), and Dean Karlen – Victoria manager (Victoria).
