This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) provides $1,200,000 to researchers at Rutgers University to conduct innovative experimental particle physics research at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). The team will use advanced machine learning techniques and novel data analysis strategies to search for signs of new physics that could explain the mystery of why gravity is much weaker than the other fundamental forces. This research aims to uncover faint signals of new physics processes that may shed light on the origin of mass and the nature of dark matter. The award also supports the mentoring of young researchers, including postdocs, graduate/undergraduate students, and high school students through the QuarkNet program. This project aligns with the NSF's mission to promote scientific progress and support STEM education, with the potential to reshape our understanding of the universe.
