The award will cover participation of this group of individuals in studying the physics of the particle responsible for the weak interaction - the Z0. The machine called LEP at CERN in Europe which makes Z0's has been running now for almost three years, and this group were responsible for building an important component of the spectrometer called L3 which is used in the detection of the Z0 decay products. These decays reveal details of the theoretical "standard model" for the interactions of nature (including the weak interaction) with great precision. The same group also plans to participate in the design and construction of a future detector to be used at the SSC accelerator which should be operational in the next decade, and which should provide clues to questions for which the standard model has no answers. Such preparations are necessary at this time, given the large scale of the SSC project.

该奖项将涵盖这组个人在研究负责弱相互作用的粒子物理学的参与-Z0。 欧洲CERN称为LEP的机器已经使Z0现在运行了将近三年，该组负责构建名为L3的重要组成部分，该组件称为L3，用于检测Z0衰减产品。 这些衰减揭示了对自然相互作用（包括弱相互作用）的理论“标准模型”的细节。 同一小组还计划参加SSC加速器的未来检测器的设计和构建，该检测器应在未来十年内运行，这应该为标准模型没有答案的问题提供线索。 考虑到SSC项目的大规模，此时需要此类准备工作。
