Topics in Hadron and Flavor Physics, and Yang-Mills Integrability

这笔拨款支持亚原子理论的广泛研究。四个特定方向的工作将得到NSF的支持，其中两个由PI和co-PI提供。然而，这两位研究人员对彼此的工作都有兴趣，所以他们之间的合作是可能的。Lebed和他的合作者将使用一种新的形式来分析重子（如质子和中子）的激发态，这种形式是为研究这些短寿命态而开发的。他还将致力于揭示中微子（来自核反应堆和太阳的粒子）的质量和混合的测量参数之间模式的本质。贝利茨基将继续发展一种方法，以辨别关于质子、中子和其他强相互作用粒子的内部结构的最详细的信息。他还将继续研究隐藏的对称性，这有助于阐明具有强相互作用的量子场论的基本性质。这笔资金不仅将为PI和合作PI提供支持，还将为博士后研究助理提供支持。这样一个关键群体不仅在发表成果方面应该更有效，而且在尽可能广泛地传播我们的研究成果方面也应该更有效。

This grant supports a broad range of research in subatomic theory. Work in four particular directions will receive NSF support, two each by the PI and co-PI. However, these two researchers have interests in each other's work, so collaboration between the two is possible in any of these topics.Lebed and a collaborator will analyze the excited states of baryons (such as protons and neutrons) using a new formalism that has been developed for studying these short-lived states. He will also work to uncover the nature of patterns among the measured parameters from the masses and mixing of neutrinos, particles that emerge from both nuclear reactors and the sun.Belitsky will continue developing an approach to discern the most detailed possible information about the interior structure of protons, neutrons, and other strongly-interacting particles. He will also pursue his studies of a hidden symmetry that helps to shed light on the fundamental nature of quantum field theories with strong interactions.This grant will provide not only support to the PI and co-PI, but a postdoctoral research associate as well. Such a group of critical mass should be much more effective not only in producing published results, but also for disseminating our research findings as broadly as possible.
