Professor Jones' current major research is at the CERN Large Electron-Positron accelerator/storage ring facility, LEP, in Geneva, Switzerland, as part of the L3 collaboration. With the LEP energy at about 200 GeV, the search for the Higgs boson and for Supersymmetric Particles is a top priority. Jones is also an active member of the L3Cosmics subgroup, utilizing the L3 muon spectrometer for unique and advanced studies of cosmic ray muons. He remains in close contact with the international cosmic ray physics community and is involved in studies of the nature of strong interactions as seen in cosmic ray interactions at energies and phase space regions not yet studied at particle accelerators. He has also been active in past and planned accelerator experiments, at Fermilab and CERN, designed to study strong interaction physics at extreme forward and backward angles (large pseudorapidity).
