QMUL Experimental Particle Physics Programme 2009-2014

玛丽女王实验粒子物理小组在该领域的前沿有一套令人兴奋的粒子物理实验。该小组成员一直致力于欧洲核子研究中心大型强子对撞机ATLAS探测器的设计、研发、建造和调试，该探测器刚刚开始看到宇宙射线和几个束流飞溅事件形式的真实数据。来自H1和BABAR实验的同事们也加入了他们的行列，他们的分析在多年的极其富有成效的结果之后即将结束，其中包括在2008年诺贝尔物理学奖中认可的对底部夸克部门CP破坏的测量。CDF实验的同事们也加入了ATLAS小组，他们是顶夸克方面的专家。ATLAS小组将继续在大型强子对撞机上研究顶夸克，所获得的专业知识将使我们能够探索新的物理，如发现希格斯粒子或超对称性。我们还将继续在尽可能高的能量下研究质子结构。玛丽女王集团也开始参与更高光度的超大型强子对撞机ATLAS探测器的升级，首先是通过参与ATLAS跟踪器升级计划，然后是可能的触发升级。在质量尺度的另一端，巴布尔的其他同事目前正在日本建立T2K长基线中微子实验，该实验将继续调查最近发现的中微子振荡。此外，该集团将寻求利用新的机会，如超级B工厂或直线对撞机，当它们可用时。

The Queen Mary Experimental Particle Physics Group has an exciting set of particle physics experiments at the forefront of the field. Members of the Group have been working on the design, R&D, construction and commissioning of the ATLAS detector at the CERN LHC which is just starting to see real data in the form of cosmic ray and a few beam splash events. They are being joined by colleagues from the H1 and BaBar experiments whose analyses are coming to an end after many years of extremely productive results including measurements of CP violation in the bottom quark sector that were recognized in the award of the 2008 Nobel Prize for physics. The ATLAS Group has also been joined by colleagues from the CDF experiment who are experts on the top quark. The ATLAS group will continue the study of the top quark at the LHC and the expertise gained will allow us to probe for new physics such as the discovery of the Higgs particle or Supersymmetry. We will also continue our study of proton structure at the highest possible energies. The Queen Mary Group is also starting to get involved in upgrades to the ATLAS detector for the higher luminosity Super-LHC, first by participating in the ATLAS Tracker Upgrade programme and later in possible Trigger upgrades. At the other end of the mass scale other colleagues from BaBar are currently building the T2K long baseline neutrino experiment in Japan which will continue the investigations of the recently discovered neutrino oscillations. In addition the Group will look to exploit new opportunities, such as Super B Factories or Linear Colliders when they become available.
