Siena College will participate through the NSF RUI program in research at the Energy Frontier with the CMS Experiment located at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN, Geneva, Switzerland. The participation will be facilitated through collaboration with the nearby CMS experimental group at Cornell University. The Siena team of PI Matt Bellis and undergraduate students will join efforts within CMS to search for rare and forbidden decays (including baryon number violating decays) of the top-quark, a particle which is produced prolifically at the LHC. The collaboration with the Cornell group means that Siena can access expertise and CMS specific information regarding data access, analysis procedures, and publication procedures. Analyses will be performed by the students at Siena. Broader impacts of the program include participation by the PI in the effort within CMS on open-access to data and outreach by the PI and his students to underrepresented and underserved students in physics in local community high schools in the greater Albany NY region.

锡耶纳学院（Siena College）将通过位于瑞士日内瓦（Cern）的大型强子撞机（LHC）的CMS实验，通过NSF RUI计划在Energy Frontier进行研究。 参与将通过与康奈尔大学附近的CMS实验组合作来促进。 Pi Matt Bellis和本科生的Siena团队将加入CMS中的努力，寻找Top-Quark的稀有和禁止的腐烂（包括违反Baryon数字衰败），这是该粒子在LHC上的积极生产的粒子。 与康奈尔集团的合作意味着Siena可以访问有关数据访问，分析程序和出版程序的专业知识和CMS的特定信息。 分析将由锡耶纳的学生进行。 该计划的更广泛的影响包括PI参与CMS内部的开放式访问，PI和他的学生的数据和宣传，以使代表人数不足和服务不足的学生在更大的奥尔巴尼纽约州当地社区高中的物理学中。
