This proposal requests continuing support for a program of research at Michigan State University in experimental elementary particle physics based principally on the D0 experiment at the Fermilab Tevatron proton-antiproton collider and the ATLAS experiment that is scheduled to start operations in 2007 at the proton-proton Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN, near Geneva, Switzerland. The group is a charter member of the D0 experiment having responsibility for major pieces of the trigger system, playing leadership roles in managing the experiment and in extracting physics during the data analysis process. They propose to continue their work on the D0 trigger system and to participate in data taking and analysis activities, including top physics, Higgs physics, and new phenomena. In the ATLAS collaboration, the group has responsibility for the design and construction of elements of the trigger system and will work on integrating elements of the Level 2 trigger with the data acquisition system and in preparing for the upcoming physics program. A major part of their activity will be devoted to analyzing Monte Carlo data from the Data Challenges I and II in preparation for the commencement of the experimental program. A fundamental feature of this group's efforts is education and outreach. They involve in their research members of groups traditionally under-represented in the field. They participate in QuarkNet and have recently given specialized courses and lectures to lay audiences.

该建议要求继续支持密歇根州立大学的一项研究计划，主要基于Fermilab Tevatron Proton-Antiproton碰撞器的D0实验，以及计划于2007年在2007年在Proton Proton-Proton Proton-Proton大型Hadron Collider（LHC）的Atlas实验，靠近Generland。 该小组是D0实验的宪章成员，负责触发系统的主要部分，在数据分析过程中扮演领导角色，并在研究实验和提取物理学方面发挥了领导作用。 他们建议继续在D0触发系统上进行工作，并参与数据获取和分析活动，包括顶级物理，HIG​​GS物理学和新现象。 在ATLAS的协作中，该小组负责触发系统元素的设计和构建，并将致力于将2级触发器的元素与数据采集系统集成并为即将到来的物理计划做准备。 他们的活动的主要部分将致力于分析I和II的数据挑战中的蒙特卡洛数据，以准备开始实验计划。该小组努力的一个基本特征是教育和宣传。他们参与了该领域传统上代表性不足的团体的研究成员。 他们参加了Quarknet，最近提供了专业的课程和讲座来介绍观众。
