Book excerpt: The Brandeis experimental particle physics group has for many years pursued an understanding of physical interactions at the highest available energies. To this end they have been active in the development of the Collider Detector at Fermilab (CDF) and in the development of detectors that were planned for the SSC. They have also had an active program of analysis to understand the data and its implications from these detectors. Brandeis remains fully engaged in the understanding of physical interactions at the highest available energies. While pursuing physics analysis, detector support activities and detector upgrades at CDF, they are also exploring the physics potential of the LHC. Pending overall agreements between the Department of Energy and CERN, the authors have joined the ATLAS experiment at CERN. The expertise gained in planning SSC detectors is directly applicable there. During the past year, the theoretical physics group pursued research in quantum field theory, with the 1/N expansion and other non-perturbative methods providing a unifying theme of much of this work. Activities centered on large N limit in scalar field theories, and two-dimensional Yang-Mills theories.
