The National Science Foundation (NSF), under its Mathematical and Physical Sciences (MPS) Federal Grant Program (CFDA 47.049), awarded a $550,000 Project Grant to The Research Foundation for the State University of New York (RF SUNY) on August 1, 2024. This award supports high energy physics research at the Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) Experiment at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). The research aims to search for new particles, study Higgs boson decays, perform precision measurements of Standard Model processes, and develop advanced machine learning and artificial intelligence techniques for data analysis and detector operations. It also includes outreach efforts to engage high school teachers and students through the QuarkNet and Science Olympiad programs, as well as initiatives to foster female participation in STEM disciplines. The project will run from August 1, 2024, through July 31, 2027.
