Cosmology and astrophysics with neutrinos and other elementary particles

粒子物理学、宇宙学和天体物理学为这个国家的科学和知识文化做出了重大贡献，因为它们解决了物理科学中一些最重要的问题。参与这些典型的大科学活动将大大有利于国家的国际地位。高成就的学生对该提案中解决的研究问题非常兴奋，因此它将大大增加训练有素的年轻澳大利亚人的数量。除了成为特定领域的专家外，他们还会成为一般问题的解决者和高水平的灵活思想家。要考虑的重大基本问题也是公众非常感兴趣的。

Particle physics, cosmology and astrophysics provide a major contribution to the scientific and intellectual culture of the nation, as they address some of the most important questions in physical science. The nation's international standing will benefit greatly from participation in these quintessentially Big Science activities. High achieving students are very excited by the research questions addressed in this proposal, so it will add significantly to the pool of highly-trained young Australians. They emerge as general problem solvers and flexible thinkers of high calibre in addition to becoming experts in particular areas. The big fundamental questions to be considered are also of great fascination to the general public.
