The funding will support experimental research into the Higgs mechanism and searches for...
The Washington College was awarded a $249,858 project grant by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences Federal Grant Program (CFDA 47.049). The grant funding will support a research project to search for new Higgs boson particles beyond the Standard Model using data from the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider. The project aims to enable undergraduate students to participate in the computational analysis of LHC data and engage in international collaboration through visits to CERN. Additionally, the project involves outreach to high schools in Maryland's Eastern Shore, where students and teachers will be trained to analyze open ATLAS data and conduct hands-on experiments with particle detectors. The award period runs from September 1, 2025, through August 31, 2027.
