Teaching buy-out to coordinate the data taking activities of the ATLAS experiment

为了研究基本粒子的物理学，在对撞机实验中再现了宇宙开始时的运行条件：欧洲核子研究中心（CERN）建造了大型强子对撞机（LHC），这是一个粒子加速器，可以比以往任何时候都更深入地探索大爆炸的过程。2008年，它开始对撞质子束，并收集了7和8 TeV质心能量的数据集，这使得2012年发现了希格斯粒子，并将2013年诺贝尔物理学奖授予了弗朗索瓦·恩格勒和彼得·希格斯。大型强子对撞机于2015年恢复运行，其能量几乎是碰撞能量的两倍，2015年12月公布的第一批结果引发了科学家们对粒子物理标准模型未描述的物理可能性的兴奋。最终，如果2015年12月公布的结果是新物理学或统计波动的第一个迹象，大型强子对撞机将需要进行更多的碰撞才能得到决定性的答案。LHC准备在未来2年的run-2期间产生高达20倍的碰撞次数，ATLAS实验准备以尽可能高的效率获取数据。2015年10月，AO被合作委员会推选为ATLAS实验的下一任“运行协调员”，代表174个合作机构和约3000名科学家。享有盛誉的“运行协调员”角色是一个高度负责和可见的职位，其任务是协调整个ATLAS实验的操作。运行协调员的任务是监督和确保ATLAS探测器的持续有效运行。

To study the physics of elementary particles the conditions which governed the universe at its beginning are reproduced in collider experiments: The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) has been build at CERN, a particle accelerator which probes deeper into the processes of the Big Bang than ever before. In 2008 it started to collide beams of protons, and collected data-sets at 7 and 8 TeV centre-of-mass energy that enabled the discovery of the Higgs particle in 2012, which lead to the attribution of the 2013 Noble price in Physics to Francois Englert and Peter Higgs. The LHC resumed operation in 2015 at nearly twice the collision energy, and first results presented in December 2015 have sparked excitement amongst scientist about the possibility of physics not described by the Standard Model of particle physics.Ultimately, LHC will need to deliver more collisions to have a decisive answer if the results presented in December 2015 were the first indication of new physics or a statistical fluctuation. LHC is preparing to produce up to 20 times the number of collision in the run-2 period during the next 2 years, and the ATLAS experiment is preparing to take data with the highest possible efficiency.In October 2015 AO was elected to become the next "Run Coordinator" of the ATLAS experiment by thecollaboration board, representing the 174 collaborating institutes and about 3000 scientists.The prestigious "Run Coordinator" role is a position of high responsibility and visibility, with the mandate to coordinate the operation of the entire ATLAS experiment. It is the mandate of the Run Coordinator to supervise and ensure the continuous and efficient operation of the ATLAS detector.
