实验科学价值的定量测度
A Quantitative Measure of Experimental Scientific Merit
摘要：
在我们的领域的实验计划审查可能会受益于一个更定量的框架内，定量讨论拟议的研究计划的科学价值，并评估一个特定的实验结果的科学价值。本文明确提出了这样一个定量框架。在许多情况下，使用这一框架评估能源前沿特定研究途径的科学价值的例子提供的结果与公认的智慧截然不同。这里提出的实验科学品质因数有可能为我们这个领域以及物理科学的其他子领域的研究方向的未来选择提供信息。
英文摘要：
Experimental program review in our field may benefit from a more quantitative framework within which to quantitatively discuss the scientific merit of a proposed program of research, and to assess the scientific merit of a particular experimental result. This article proposes explicitly such a quantitative framework. Examples of the use of this framework in assessing the scientific merit of particular avenues of research at the energy frontier in many cases provide results in stark contradiction to accepted wisdom. The experimental scientific figure of merit proposed here has the potential for informing future choices of research direction in our field, and in other subfields of the physical sciences.
