"Physics at DZERO: Exploring the Microscopic Structure of the Universe"Jerry Blazey , NIU [Host: Bob Hirosky]
ABSTRACT:
To explore the microscopic structure of the universe very energetic
beams of submicroscopic particles and complicated detectors, such as the
DZERO detector, are required. These huge machines, built by graduates
students, physicists, and engineers, have the potential to explain the
origins of mass and to explore extra spatial dimensions. The technology
behind these investigations and their current state will be described.
Prof. Blazey serves as spokesman for the D-Zero Collaboration at
Fermilab and director of NICADD, the Northern Illinois Center for
Accelerator and Detector Development.
