The CPP+ MRS personnel, for whom we request continued support, combined synergistically with infrastructure resources principally based at the University of Alberta (Alberta), the University of Toronto (Toronto) and York University (York), but also involving the UBC and the University of Regina (Regina), have enabled the creation of the unique CPP+ national resource. This resource enables and facilitates the effective access of Subatomic Physics (SAP) researchers to a number of major international resource centres, namely: BNL (USA), CERN (Switzerland), JLab (USA), the Kamioka Observatory (Japan), the IceCube Neutrino Observatory (IceCube), SNOLAB, and TRIUMF. The CPP+ projects range from underground physics at SNOLAB (DEAP, PICO, SNO+) and IceCube/PINGU, through long baseline neutrino physics with the T2K experiment to QCD physics with the Super High Momentum Spectrometer (SHMS) in Hall C at JLab. Thence, to high-energy physics at the LHC (ATLAS, MoEDAL). ******The CPP+ national resource contributes to ~50% of the projects constituting the entire Canadian Institute of Particle Physics (IPP) program. Additionally, the collaborations engaged in these projects involve the majority of SAP institutes in Canada. In order to maximize the accessibility of the CPP+ resource its widely based Operating Committee (OPCOM) comprised of the ten coapplicants on this request and one external member, the Director of IPP, and chaired by its Principal Investigator, continues to provide free, fair and merit driven access to all SAP researchers. This access is web based and available primarily via links available on the IPP and Canadian Institute for Nuclear Physics (CINP) websites. The CPP+ MRS resources are publicized through presentations given at appropriate venues, such as the IPP Town Hall at the Canadian Association of Physicists Congress in 2017. The IPP Director was included in our OPCOM in order to provide arms length oversight and community wide optimization of manpower infrastructure resources across all SAP MRS grants.******To sustain this national CPP+ MRS resource we need to retain support for an engineer, a detector technologist, and an electronics technician at Alberta and an engineer based at Toronto. The Toronto Engineer listed in the previous MRS application has now retired and we will be seeking to replace him by an entry level, although fully accredited mechanical engineer. These knowledgeable, skilled and experienced personnel are invaluable assets in the arena of design, construction and testing of state-of-the-art detector and electronic systems for forefront particle s leading experiments - and vital in the training of HQP. They are also absolutely vital to handle the load of diverse, specialized and demanding projects submitted to the resource, recognizing that the demand for service is rarely uniformly balanced across the year.

我们请求继续支持的CPP+ MRS人员与基础设施资源结合在一起，主要位于艾伯塔大学（艾伯塔省），多伦多大学（多伦多）和约克大学（York）（York），但也涉及UBC和Regina大学（Regina）（Regina）（Regina）（Regina），已促进了独特的CPP+国家资源的创造。该资源能够实现并促进亚原子物理学（SAP）研究人员的有效访问，即许多主要的国际资源中心，即：BNL（美国），CERN（Switzerland），JLAB（美国），Kamioka天文台，日本（日本），Icecube Neutrino specube（Icecube Neutrino obserino obserino obserino obserino observatory（iCecube）），Snolob和Triumab和Triumf。 CPP+项目的范围从Snolab（DEAP，PICO，SNO+）的地下物理学和Icecube/Pingu，到具有T2K实验的长基线中微子物理学到QCD物理学，具有jlab厅C厅中超高动量光谱仪（SHMS）的QCD物理学。因此，在LHC（Moedal Atlas）的高能物理学。 ****** CPP+国家资源构成了构成整个加拿大粒子物理研究所（IPP）计划的项目的约50％。此外，从事这些项目的合作涉及加拿大的大多数SAP机构。为了最大程度地提高CPP+资源的可访问性，其基于该请求的十个共同申请人的基于基于的运营委员会（OPCOM），以及一名外部成员，IPP主任，并由其首席研究人员主持，继续提供免费，公平和功绩驱动的驱动器，可驱动所有SAP研究人员。此访问是基于Web的，主要通过IPP和加拿大核物理研究所（Stinp）网站上的链接获得。 CPP+ MRS资源通过在适当的地点进行的演示进行公开，例如2017年加拿大物理学家会议协会的IPP市政厅。在我们的OPCOM中包括了IPP主管，以便为武器长度和社区的监督和社区提供广泛的监督优化，以优化人力的基础设施，以维持所有SAP MRS的资源。艾伯塔省的电子技术人员和多伦多的工程师。以前的MRS应用程序中列出的多伦多工程师现已退休，尽管完全认可的机械工程师，我们将寻求用入门级代替他。这些知识渊博，熟练和经验丰富的人员是最先进的探测器和电子系统的设计，构建和测试领域的宝贵资产，用于最前沿的粒子领先实验 - 对HQP的培训至关重要。 他们对于处理提交给资源的各种，专业和苛刻的项目的负担也绝对至关重要，因为人们认识到对服务的需求在一年中很少统一平衡。
