9507260 Hedin A group of faculty and students at Northern Illinois University are engaged in research with the DO collaboration who operate at the Tevatron proton-antiproton collider at Fermilab (FNAL) and do simulation on backgrounds to be expected in detectors at higher-energy, higher-luminosity colliders. The model for that latter is the ATLAS detector planned for the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at the CERN laboratory in Geneva, Switzerland. The group has a particular expertise in muon detection systems including data acquisition, calibration, trigger software and track reconstruction. As such it has important responsibilities in the currently active upgrade of the DO detector and focuses on analysis of related phenomena, events with muon signatures. support is prided to three senior faculty, a junior faculty member, a postdoctoral research associate and, in part, a senior research associate as well as two graduate students and, as an REU supplement, two undergraduate students. ***

9507260 Hedin一组教职员工和北伊利诺伊大学的学生正在与Do合作进行研究，他们在Fermilab的Tevatron Proton-Antiproton Collider（FNAL）（FNAL）进行了研究，并在更高级，更高灯泡碰撞者的检测器中预期的背景进行模拟。 后者的模型是计划在瑞士日内瓦的CERN实验室的大型强子对撞机（LHC）计划的地图集探测器。 该小组在MUON检测系统中具有特殊的专业知识，包括数据采集，校准，触发软件和跟踪重建。 因此，它在目前主动升级的DO检测器中具有重要的责任，并着重于分析相关现象，带有MUON特征的事件。 支持三个高级教师，初级教职员工，博士后研究助理，部分是一名高级研究助理以及两名研究生，以及作为REU补充剂，是两名本科生。 ***
