The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $249,874 Project Grant under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) program to California State University, Stanislaus (CSU Stanislaus) to conduct research on searching for an extended Higgs sector at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). The project aims to search for additional Higgs bosons that could help explain phenomena not accounted for by the Standard Model of particle physics, such as dark matter and the matter-antimatter...
This $200,000 Project Grant was awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Physics under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences Federal Grant Program (CFDA 47.049). The grant is funding research by Professor Osherson's group at the University of Notre Dame to search for new, very light particles at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN. The key objectives are to develop new algorithms for reconstructing particle signatures, particularly for axion-like particles, and to...
