LHC Summer Research Experience

该奖项支持由密歇根大学协调的本科生研究经验（REU）计划的更新，提供在欧洲粒子物理实验室（CERN）的研究经验。当大型强子对撞机（LHC）在欧洲核子研究中心建成后，它将代表未来几十年高能物理实验的前沿。在欧洲核子研究中心研究大型强子对撞机问题的学生和教师经历了一段智力学徒期，并学会了理解国际科学合作的本质以及现代物理学的问题和方法。该计划的两个部分是：(1)历史上的UM-CERN物理计划，涉及15名学生在CERN的导师指导下在CERN进行研究；(2)一个高中教师计划，涉及5名教师参加为期三周的CERN高中教师计划，并在LHC实验中进行为期三周的研究参与。学生们将在欧洲核子研究中心度过8-9周的时间，参与研究项目，参加物理系列讲座，并与欧洲科学家和理工科学生互动。该计划的方向包括帮助他们学习如何在日内瓦生活、计算机教学、物理和伦理研讨会以及参观欧洲核子研究中心的实验。学生们将经常聚集在一起，就他们的研究活动发表演讲，学习物理报告的协议和技术。每天，他们还与指定的导师一起研究当前的物理问题。CERN有一名现场协调员，协助学生处理与项目或个人需求有关的任何事宜。每个学生必须就他们的成就做最后的报告，并参加项目评估。教师将参加CERN HST项目http://teachers.web.cern.ch/teachers/，并有机会与大型强子对撞机研究小组合作。该奖项由物理系和数学与物理科学理事会多学科活动办公室共同资助。

This award supports the renewal of the Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) program coordinated by the University of Michigan offering research experiences at the European Laboratory for Particle Physics (CERN). When the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is completed at CERN, it will represent the frontier for experimental high energy physics for several decades to come. Students and teachers working on LHC focused problems at CERN experience an intellectual apprenticeship and learn to understand the nature of international scientific collaboration and the questions and methods of modern physics. The two parts of the program are (1) the historical UM-CERN physics program involving 15 students in research at CERN with CERN based mentors and (2) a high school teachers program involving five teachers participating in the three week CERN High School Teacher program augmented by a three-week period of research participation in the LHC experiments. The students will spend 8-9 weeks at CERN participating in research projects, attending a physics lecture series and interacting with European scientists and science students. The program orientation contains components designed to help them learn how to live in Geneva, instruction in computing, seminars on physics and ethics along with tours of the CERN experiments. The students will gather frequently to give talks about their research activities, learning about the protocols and techniques of physics presentations. Each day they also work with assigned mentors on current physics problems. An onsite Coordinator is present at CERN to assist the students with any matters related to program or personal needs. Each student must give a final talk on their accomplishments and participate in the program evaluation. The teachers will participate in the CERN HST program http://teachers.web.cern.ch/teachers/ and will have the opportunity to work with LHC research groups. This award is co-funded by the Division of Physics and by the Office of Multidisciplinary Activities of the Mathematical and Physical Sciences Directorate.
