中文摘要
粒子加速器有许多不同的应用,它们在医学和工业中的使用正在改变人们的生活。然而,尽管希格斯玻色子和欧洲核子研究中心的大型强子对撞机的发现激发了公众的想象力,但公众仍然基本上没有意识到加速器除了粒子物理研究之外还有任何用途。《人类加速器》将通过策划一个横跨现场活动和数字视频资源的项目来解决这一差距。该项目将捕捉到STFC资助的设施中粒子加速器研究人员的奉献精神,并突出他们的工作在医药、食品安全和核能等领域对我们的生活产生的各种影响。它将利用皇家学会(Ri)频道视频制作团队的经验,以及该组织在向公众传播深度科学方面的200年专业知识。例如,到目前为止,STFC资助的“Ri Crystalloology”收藏已经被观看了近40万次。该项目将包括由STFC资助的Suzie Sheehy博士的公开演讲,以及一个由粒子加速器研究人员组成的小组的辩论。在她的演讲中,Sheehy博士将讨论她的工作,设计加速器,以及它们在癌症治疗等领域的潜在应用。小组辩论的焦点将集中在设计今天的加速器以用于回答明天的研究问题的研究人员所面临的挑战。这两个活动都将被拍摄下来,并作为永久的人类加速器数字资源的一部分在网上提供。Ri还将制作一系列短片,探索在STFC资助的设施中工作的粒子加速器研究人员的人类故事,探索建造加速器所面临的挑战的动画,解释加速器捕获和传输带电粒子的原理的科学演示视频,以及提供加速器内360度视角的互动视频。这些电影将面向普通观众开发,并将根据知识共享许可发行。他们将在Ri的YouTube频道上托管,该频道目前拥有约20万订户,并在其他媒体和教育网站上播种。将鼓励通过YouTube评论进行公开讨论,这种在线讨论将得到包括Ri推特测验在内的社交媒体讨论的补充。Ri自己的视频网站Ri Channel将创建一个项目中心,作为永久数字资源的家园。这些资源将分发给教师和教育工作者,项目总结活动将有助于提高科学传播者和英国粒子加速器研究社区对该项目的认识。
英文摘要
Particle accelerators have many varied applications and their uses in medicine and industry are transforming lives. Yet, whilst the discovery of the Higgs Boson and CERN's Large Hadron Collider captured the public's imagination like few other recent scientific developments, the public remains largely unaware that accelerators have any uses apart from particle physics research.'Accelerators for Humanity' will address this gap by curating a programme cutting across live events and digital video resources. The project will capture the dedication of particle accelerator researchers in STFC-funded facilities and highlight the varied ways in which their work is impacting on our lives in areas such as medicine, food safety and nuclear power. It will utilise the experience of the Royal Institution (Ri) Channel video production team, and the organisation's 200-year expertise in communicating in-depth science to the public. For example, the STFC-funded 'Ri Crystallography' collection to date has been viewed nearly 400k times.The project will include a public talk by STFC-funded Dr Suzie Sheehy and a debate featuring a panel of particle accelerator researchers. In her talk Dr Sheehy will discuss her work designing accelerators and their potential future applications in areas such as the treatment of cancer. The panel debate will focus on the challenges faced by researchers designing today's accelerators for use in answering tomorrow's research questions. Both these events will be filmed and available online as part of a permanent 'Accelerators for Humanity' digital resource.The Ri will also produce a series of short films exploring the human stories of particle accelerator researchers working in STFC-funded facilities, an animation exploring the challenges faced in building accelerators, a science demo video explaining the principle by which accelerators trap and transport charged particles, and an interactive video providing a 360 degree view inside an accelerator.The films will be developed for a general audience and will be released under a Creative Commons license. They will be hosted on the Ri's YouTube channel, which currently has around 200,000 subscribers, as well as being seeded on other media and educational websites. Public discussion through YouTube comments will be encouraged, and this online discussion will be supplemented by social media discussions including an Ri Twitter quiz.A project hub will be created on the Ri's own video website, the Ri Channel, which will act as home to the permanent digital resources. The resources will be distributed to teachers and educators and a project wrap-up event will help raise awareness of the project amongst science communicators and those within the UK particle accelerator research community.
