The Office of High Energy Physics in the DOE Office of Science invites members of the news media to attend an accelerator symposium, Accelerators for America’s Future, October 26, 2009 in Washington DC at the Washington Marriott Wardman Park Hotel. Following the symposium, on October 27-28, media access will be available with invited experts in the fields of:
High Energy Physics explores the most fundamental questions about the nature of the universe. The Office of High Energy Physics supports a program focused on three frontiers of scientific discovery. At the energy frontier, powerful accelerators investigate the constituents and architecture of the universe. At the intensity frontier, astronomically large amounts of particles and highly sensitive detectors offer a second, unique pathway to investigate rare events in nature. At the cosmic frontier, natural sources of particles from space reveal the nature of the universe. Together these three interrelated discovery frontiers create a complete picture, advancing Department of Energy missions through the development of key cutting-edge technologies and the training of future generations of scientists.
