论文摘要
美国政府资助的大型粒子物理项目需要评估和缓解每个项目对当地社区的潜在影响。但是,除了满足政府的要求外,粒子物理项目还可以通过有意义地参与其当地社区来在当地决策,建立关系以及对关键项目的讨论中发挥重要作用。在美国粒子物理社区规划练习(Snowmass)的白皮书中,我们研究了三个设施的几项当地社区参与工作:劳伦斯·伯克利国家实验室(伯克利实验室),费米国家加速器实验室(Fermilab)和桑福德地下研究机构(Surf)。尽管每个设施都集中在不同类型的社区中的不同努力上,但每项研究都强调了采用一致的外展技术,促进多样性,建立持久的关系以及为开放和诚实的沟通创造环境的重要性和好处。
Large particle physics projects funded by the U.S. Government require an evaluation and mitigation of each project's potential impacts on the local communities. However, beyond meeting governmental requirements, particle physics projects stand to play an essential role in local decision-making, building relationships, and framing discussions about key projects by becoming meaningfully engaged in their local communities. In this white paper for the U.S. Particle Physics Community Planning Exercise (Snowmass), we examine several local community engagement efforts made by three facilities: Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab), Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (Fermilab), and the Sanford Underground Research Facility (SURF). Although each facility focuses on a different endeavor in varying types of communities, each study highlights the importance and benefits of employing consistent outreach techniques, promoting diversity, establishing lasting relationships, and creating environments for open and honest communication.
