This proposal requests continuing support for the particle physics group at Northeastern University covering a comprehensive three-year program of studies of the top quark and electroweak physics at the D0 experiment at the Fermilab Tevatron and preparation plans for the turn-on of the CMS detector at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN, near Geneva, Switzerland. Experimental particle physics at the energy frontier has taken on a new importance in light of recent cosmological and astrophysical data. It is an exciting time to pursue this forefront research. The proposal describes the proposed activities in the following two areas: (1) Electroweak (EW) and top-quark physics in D0. This activity also includes the group's hardware and software responsibilities in the collaboration. (2) Construction and preparation for physics in CMS. The group's goal on CMS is to carry out a wide range of research studies, with an emphasis on electroweak physics and searches for new phenomena.The group is active in a broad range of outreach and education initiatives. These activities are connected to their core research program by involving students in the research at CERN and Fermilab.

该提案要求在东北大学对粒子物理组的持续支持，涵盖了Fermilab Tevatron的D0实验的顶级Quark和Electroweak Physics的全面研究，并为在Geneva，Switzerland Cern Ever的大型Hadron Collider（LHC）上的CMS探测器转换计划的准备计划以及CMS探测器的预装计划。 鉴于最近的宇宙学和天体物理数据，能量前沿的实验粒子物理学已经提高了新的重要性。 这是进行这项前列研究的激动人心的时刻。 该提案描述了以下两个领域所提出的活动：（1）D0中的Electroweak（EW）和顶级物理学。 此活动还包括该集团在协作中的硬件和软件责任。 （2）CMS中物理的构建和准备。 该小组在CMS上的目标是进行广泛的研究，重点是电子物理学并寻找新现象。该小组活跃于广泛的外展和教育计划中。 这些活动通过让学生参与CERN和Fermilab的研究来连接其核心研究计划。
