Major Resource Support for the Particle Physics Group at the Université de Montréal

蒙特利尔大学粒子物理组（GPP/UofM）的基础设施项目为蒙特利尔大学（UofM）和劳伦特大学（LU）的研究人员的研究项目提供支持。该研究计划涉及来自GGP/UofM和LU的8个资助共同申请人以及一些主要用户。该资源为探测器、读出电子学、触发器、数据采集和探测器束流测试的建设和研发提供基础设施和技术支持。它还提供了计算支持。资源设施包括一个电子和机械车间，以及直接访问质子和中子束提供的串联加速器的R.J.A.莱维斯克实验室。他们的能力得到了CFI的支持（UdeM为340万美元）的帮助，从而得以建造洁净室，一条用于探测器测试和研究的新中子束线，一个半导体测试台以及电子和机械车间的升级。各种技术和专业资源被组织成一个支持单位：技术组（GT），部分由大学和工业合同支持。GPP/UofM实验人员活跃在三个实验中：i）欧洲核子研究中心LHC的ATLAS ii）美国斯坦福大学SLAC的BaBar，研究iii）SNO实验室的PICASSO。LU实验人员在SNO实验室积极进行四项实验：i）EXO，ii）SNO+，iii）HALO和iv）PICASSO。该资源也被其他UofM部门的团体使用（物理学，生理学）和来自加拿大和世界其他大学的团体，如VERITAS和POLARBEAR（麦吉尔大学），ILC（卡尔顿、德国亚琛大学、美国康奈尔大学、CEA Saclay、伯克利、慕尼黑马克斯普朗克研究所、TIGRESS（凯旋、麦克马斯特、拉瓦尔、圭尔夫）、TACTIC（TRIUMF York-UK）、ALPHA（TRIUMF，CERN）、医学物理学-液体氙PET原型（TRIUMF）。来自GPP/UofM和蒙特利尔魁北克大学（UQAM）的理论家通过参与LHC能量物理学的现象学研究与实验组合作。

The infrastructure program of the Particle Physics Group at the Université de Montréal (GPP/UofM) maintains facilities supporting the research program of researchers from the University of Montreal (UofM) and from Laurentian University (LU). The research program involves 8 grant co-applicants from the GGP/UofM and LU and a number of main users. The resource provides the infrastructure and technical support for construction and R&D for detectors, readout electronics, trigger, data acquisition and detectors beam testing. It also provides a computing support. The resource facilities consist of a electronics and mechanical workshops, as well as direct access to proton and neutron beams delivered by the Tandem accelerator of the R.J.A. Lévesque Laboratory. Their capabilities have been augmented with the help of a CFI support ($3.4 Millions for UdeM) which allowed the construction of clean rooms, a new neutron beam line for detectors testing and study, a semiconductor test bench and an upgrade of the electronics and mechanical workshops. The various technical and professional resources are organized as a support unit: The Groupe Technologique (GT) that is partially supported by the university and industrial contracts.The GPP/UofM experimentalists are active in three experiments: i) ATLAS at LHC, CERN ii) BaBar at SLAC, Stanford USA, studying the iii) PICASSO at the SNO laboratory. The LU experimentalists are active in four experiments at the SNO laboratory: i) EXO, ii) SNO+, iii) HALO and iv) PICASSO. The resource is also used by groups from other UofM departments (physics, physiology) and by groups from other universities in Canada and in the world such as VERITAS and POLARBEAR (McGill) , ILC (Carleton, Aachen University-Germany, Cornell-US, CEA Saclay, Berkeley, Max-Plank Institute Munich, TIGRESS (TRIUMF, McMaster, Laval, Guelph), TACTIC (TRIUMF York-UK), ALPHA (TRIUMF, CERN), Medical physics-Liquid Xenon PET prototype (TRIUMF). Theorists from GPP/UofM and from the University of Quebec in Montreal (UQAM) collaborate with the experimental groups through their participation to phenomenological studies of physics at LHC energies.
