DOE Office of High Energy Physics (HEP)
Connections between the physics of
elementary particles and the physics that
determines the structure of the universe
HEP Office supports ~ 90% of . High
Energy Physics and coordinates with NSF,
NASA and international efforts
We coordinate our program with the
National Science Foundation (NSF),
NASA and International Efforts
Goal is to Explore the Fundamental Interactions of Energy, Matter, Time,
and Space
Understand the unification of fundamental particles and forces and the mysterious forms of unseen energy and matter that dominate the universe
Search for possible new dimensions of space

Accelerator-based physics is our primary tool
Top quarks, Higgs search, extra dimensions, supersymmetry; neutrino studies, b-quarks, CP violation
Operating experiments: Accelerator Physics
CDF and DZero Fermilab Tevatron Top quark, Higgs, SUSY, extra dimensions
MiniBooNE Fermilab Main Injector Neutrino mixing
BaBar SLAC B-factory Matter-antimatter, b quark, CP violation
K2K Japan Neutrino mixing
MINOS Fermilab Main Injector Neutrino mixing (long baseline)
BES China (IHEP) charm and bottom quarks
Under Construction:
ATLAS & CMS CERN Large Hadron Collider Higgs, SUSY, extra dimensions
Proposed or Future Planning:
International Linear Collider Higgs, SUSY, extra dimensions
Electron Neutrino Appearance Experiment Neutrino mass, mixing, hierarchy
High Intensity Neutrino Beam Neutrino mass, mixing, hierarchy
