Study of Antiproton-Proton Collisions at 2 TeV

这项拨款将支持在费米实验室Tevatron使用DO探测器的研究。 在Tevatron中，质子和反质子以目前世界上最高的能量相撞。 这些碰撞的产物使用DO检测器进行了研究。 实验人员希望找到以前没有见过的新型粒子的证据。 实验者要寻找的一种粒子就是希格斯玻色子。 这种粒子被粒子物理学的标准模型预测存在，并且是赋予粒子质量的机制的残余。 实验者也可能找到超对称粒子的证据。

This grant will support studies using the DO detector at the FERMILAB Tevatron. At the Tevatron protons and anti- protons are collided at the highest energies currently available in the world. These products of these collisions are studied using the DO detector. The experimenters hope to find evidence of new types of particles not previously seen. One such particle the experimenters will search for is the Higgs. This particle is predicted to exist by the Standard Model of particle physics and is a remnant of the mechanism which gives particles mass. The experimenters may also find evidence for supersymmetric particles.
