The LHC physics program is the highest priority of the US High Energy Physics program. US physicists are major contributors to the construction of the experiment and will be major contributors to the physics program. This program will address some of the most important questions in the field, among them: the origin of mass; the nature of spacetime; the nature of dark matter. It is essential that the LHC physicists be prepared to analyze the data once the LHC accelerator starts in 2008. The First ATLAS Workshop of the Americas to be held in Aug, 2007 is a key event that will bring together physicists from the Americas to exchange ideas and prepare for the onset of data.High Energy physics has long been an international activity. This program will provide partial support for South American scientists on the ATLAS experiment to participate in the First ATLAS Workshop of the Americas, to be held at SLAC in August 2007. The meeting will focus on the tools, techniques, and infrastructure needed to extract physics results from the early LHC running.

LHC物理计划是美国高能物理计划的最高优先事项。美国物理学家是实验建设的主要贡献者，将成为物理学计划的主要贡献者。该计划将解决该领域中一些最重要的问题，其中包括：群众的起源；时空的本质；暗物质的本质。 LHC物理学家必须准备分析数据一旦2008年开始。该计划将为南美科学家在ATLAS实验中提供部分支持，以参加2007年8月在SLAC举行的Atras第一个研讨会。该会议将集中于从LHC早期跑步中提取物理学结果所需的工具，技术和基础设施。
