Final Report Abstract

The PRISMA Cluster of Excellence is focussed on the key questions concerning the fundamental constituents of matter and their implications for the physics of the Universe. PRISMA consists of several high-profile research groups working predominantly in the areas of astroparticle, high-energy and hadron physics, nuclear chemistry, as well as precision physics with ultra-cold neutrons (UCNs) and ion traps. PRISMA has launched new flagship experiments and key initiatives, which elucidate the nature of fundamental interactions and explore the limits of the Standard Model (SM). The clusteris divided into four research areas and four major structural initiatives. Research area A, Fundamental Interactions, is focussed on indirect searches for new physics. Key projects include the search for additional light vector bosons which couple to the dark matter sector, new precision determinations of the weak mixing angle, and precision physics with UCNs. Research area A receives support from two major structural initiatives, i.e. the construction of the Mainz Energy-Recovering Superconducting Accelerator (structural initiative E) and a user facility at the TRIGA Mainz Research Reactor (structural initiative F). The latter will operate the world’s strongest pulsed source of UCNs. Large international experiments such as ATLAS, IceCube and the XENON dark matter project form the basis for research area B, Origin of Mass. Activities include the exploration of the Higgs sector, searches for WIMPs and other new particles in extensions of the SM, with important input from theory. Unravelling the complex internal structure of hadrons and providing precision hadronic input for SM tests are key objectives of research area C, Structure of Matter. Research area D is devoted to theoretical physics, focussing on advanced methods in quantum field theory, mathematical physics and string theory. The foundation of the Mainz Institute of Theoretical Physics (structural initiative G) has established an international centre for theoretical physics in Germany. The PRISMA Detector Laboratory (structural initiative H) has provided the basis for a common approach to novel detector development within the cluster. PRISMA has created six assistant and three additional full professorships in key scientific areas, which are crucial for the cluster’s research goals.
