论文摘要
该备忘录正在探索建立外星实验设施来研究颗粒物理学的可能性。月亮被认为是地球外人造粒子源的最有希望的位置。该天然卫星被深色的真空包围，处于低温温度下，并且总是以一侧面对地球。可以通过建立月球中微子工厂来利用这些功能，这可能会为更精确的振荡和可能的中微子质量提供更精确的测量。讨论了各种类型的设施，重点是月球线性加速器和核反应堆。也简要提到了其他类型，例如月球船员甚至绕行来源。指向地球的月球粒子加速器也可以用于校准大气淋浴模型，这是宇宙射线研究的关键部分。
The memo is exploring possibilities to set up extraterrestrial experimental facilities to study particles physics. The Moon is considered as the most promising location for artificial particle sources outside the Earth. This natural satellite is surrounded with deep vacuum, is at low cryogenic temperatures and is always facing the Earth with one side. These features can be exploited by setting up lunar neutrino factory, which may create a possibility for more precise measurements of oscillations and possibly mass of neutrinos. Various types of facilities are discussed with focus on lunar linear accelerators and nuclear reactors. The other types such as lunar colliders or even orbiting sources are briefly mentioned too. Lunar particle accelerators pointing to Earth can also be used to calibrate atmospheric shower models, which are the key part of cosmic rays research.
