研究活动是开发，并使用在 物理测量，用于DO的粒子探测器系统 质子-反质子对撞机的交叉区. 费米实验室 这个探测器系统，称为DO探测器， 预计将成为最重要的工具之一， 基本粒子物理学研究在未来十年。 DO检测器将用于测量 "弱玻色子"，弱核力的载体;研究 强核力的性质（量子 色动力学）;并寻找尚未发现的现象。 研究领域是实验小学 粒子物理学 本研究主要研究基础建筑 物质块（例如，电子、正电子、夸克和弱 玻色子）在非常高的能量。 实验使用 提供最高能量的加速器（对撞机） 在实验室里制造的粒子。 收集数据， 使用高度复杂和精密的仪器进行分析， 技术.

The research activity is the development, and use in physics measurements, of a particle detector system for the DO intersection region of the proton-antiproton collider at Fermilab. This detector system, called the DO detector, is expected to be one of the most important instruments for elementary particle physics research during the next decade. The DO detector will be used to measure the properties of the "weak bosons", carriers of the weak nuclear force; study the properties of the strong nuclear force (quantum chromodynamics); and search for yet undiscovered phenomena. The field of research is that of experimental elementary particle physics. This research studies the basic building blocks of matter (e.g., electrons, positrons, quarks, and weak bosons) at very high energies. The experiments use accelerators (colliders) which provide the highest energy particles made in the laboratory. The data is collected and analyzed using highly complex and sophisticated apparatus and techniques.
