Deep Underground Science and Engineering Lab Hamish Robertson for the DUSEL S1 P/Is: E.W. Beier, C. Fairhurst, T.C. Onstott, R.G.H. Robertson, B. Sadoulet, J. Tiedje

The NSF solicitations Four NSF directorates – MPS, GEO, ENG, BIO S1 – Research definition and associated infrastructure requirements. S2 – Site development and conceptual design. 8 proposals “down-selected” to 2 sites, $500 k each. S3 – Site specific, detailed infrastructure plan for science and engineering for a single site. Earliest MRE funding available – beginning FY 2009 ~ a few X 10 8 $ for lab plus experiments.

Physics Geosciences & Engineering Geomicrobiology Three Major Research Areas

Physics: the Big Questions What is the dark matter? What is the nature of the dark energy? How did the universe begin? Did Einstein have the last word on gravity? What are the masses of the neutrinos, and how have they shaped the evolution of the universe? How do cosmic accelerators work and what are they accelerating? Are protons unstable? Are there new states of matter at exceedingly high density and temperature? Are there additional spacetime dimensions? How were the elements from iron to uranium made? Is a new theory of matter and light needed at the highest energies?
