US-Indo Cooperative Research: Phenomenological Studies with Standard Model & Beyond

9514793 Pakvasa描述：这项研究将调查有关高能物理的不同方面的现象学问题，特别强调高能对撞机。 考虑到在过去十年中费米实验室、SLAC、CERN、DESY的新对撞机的成功，以及其他将于今年开始运行的对撞机，对撞机物理学将继续发展成为高能物理学的一个重要分支。 粒子物理学的标准模型通常被认为是不完整的。 研究人员将探索物理学超越标准模型的现象学意义，用于当前和未来的高能对撞机实验。 例子包括寻找超对称性，希格斯玻色子是唯一尚未发现的标准模型粒子，以及中微子的物理学，其质量可以为高能物理学提供线索。 位于檀香山马诺阿的夏威夷的Sandip Pakvasa和Xerxes Tata教授将与孟买大学的物理学家Rohini Godbole博士和塔塔基础研究所（TIFR）合作。 在过去的几年里，所有的共同研究者都积极参与了现象学研究。 这项合作将使戈德博尔能够与夏威夷大学的大型实验组进行互动，该实验组参与了美国、中国和日本费米实验室的实验。适用范围：高能物理是印度政府确定的重点研究领域，也是印度物理学家中最活跃和最有实力的研究领域之一。的 研究小组在调查方面有特别的专门知识，他们在过去的工作中卓有成效。该项目所需的适度支持将使研究人员能够恢复他们的合作，并加强印度不断增长的对撞机物理学家社区与美国同行之间的合作研究。 ***

9514793 Pakvasa Description: This research will investigate phenomenological issues concerning different aspects of High Energy Physics with special emphasis on high energy colliders. Considering the success over the last decade of new colliders at Fermilab, SLAC, CERN, DESY, and that others are due to begin operation this year, collider physics will continue to grow as an important branch of High Energy Physics. The Standard Model of particle physics is generally believed to be incomplete. The investigators will explore phenomenological implications of Physics Beyond the Standard Model for current and future experiments at high energy colliders. Examples include the search for supersymmetry, for Higgs bosons the only Standard Model particle yet to be discovered, as well as the physics of neutrinos whose masses could provide clues to physics at high energy. Professors Sandip Pakvasa and Xerxes Tata of the University of Hawaii at Manoa, Honolulu will collaborate with physicist, Dr. Rohini Godbole of the University of Bombay and the Tata Institute of Fundamental Research (TIFR). All coinvestigators have been actively engaged in phenomenological research for the last several years. This collaboration will allow Godbole to interact with the large experimental group at the University of Hawaii that is involved with experiments at Fermilab in the US, in China and in Japan. Scope: High energy physics is an area of research that has been identified as a thrust area by the Indian Government and is one of tremendous activity and strength among Indian physicists. The research team has particular expertise in the areas of investigation and they have worked effectively in the past. The modest support requested for this project will allow the investigators to renew their collaboration and also strengthen cooperative research betweens the growing community of collider physicists in India and their counterparts in the US. ***
