"High Energy Physics - On the Ground, Underground, and in Space"Dr. Kathleen Turner , Dept of Energy, Office of Science, Office of High Energy Physics
ABSTRACT:
The Office of High Energy Physics' mission is to explore the fundamental
nature of matter, energy, space and time. The core of the program centers
on investigations of elementary particles and the interactions between
them using high energy particle accelerators. In order to fully explore
the science, experiments are also done on the ground, underground and in
space. The DOE HEP program provides about 90 percent of the federal
support for high energy physics research in the U.S. and involves over
2,450 researchers at over 100 universities and 8 laboratories. The High
Energy Physics current experimental program will be described, along
with a look towards possibilities for the future.
