Workshop on Experimental Particle Physics; Bogota, Colombia,August 15-26, 1988

该奖项将支持在哥伦比亚波哥大国际物理学中心（CIF）举行的实验粒子物理学研讨会。该研讨会由科罗拉多大学博尔德分校的乌里尔·纳恩伯格教授和CIF执行主任伽利略·维奥利尼教授联合组织，其主要目标是概述基本粒子物理学实验活动的现状，重点是拉丁美洲物理学家可能感兴趣的研究课题。讨论的主题包括：粒子物理中的加速器和非加速器实验，实验天体物理学，宇宙学，与实验粒子物理相关的技术，如同步加速器辐射，超导磁体，低温和真空系统，放射治疗和核医学，以及先进的电子和计算机。最后的目标将是审查目前在拉丁美洲的实验活动和在不久的将来进行新的实验项目的可行性，并密切注意与工业化世界的研究中心，如美国的费米实验室和欧洲核子研究中心的合作。该研讨会将包括活跃的研究物理学家，旨在促进拉丁美洲和美国主要实验研究中心的研究人员之间的合作关系。因此，它建立在与拉丁美洲其他地方，特别是巴西和墨西哥的其他合作粒子物理小组的现有关系的基础上。通过邀请著名的实验学家与他们的拉丁美洲同行讨论发展中国家可行的项目，该研讨会有助于推进发展中国家科学计划的目标。

This award will support a workshop on experimental particle physics to be held at the Centro Internacional de Fisica (CIF) in Bogota, Colombia. The workshop, jointly organized by Prof. Uriel Nauenberg of the University of Colorado at Boulder and Prof. Galileo Violini, Executive Director of the CIF, will have as its main objective an overview of the present status of experimental activity in elementary particle physics, with emphasis on topics of potential research interest to physicists in Latin America. Topics to be discussed include: accelerator and non-accelerator experiments in particle physics, experimental astrophysics, cosmology, technologies associated with experimental particle physics such as synchrotron radiation, superconducting magnets, cryogenics, and vacuum systems, radiation therapy and nuclear medicine, and advanced electronics and computers. A final objective will be a review of the present experimental activity in Latin America and the feasibliity of new experimental projects in the near future with close attention to collaboration with centers of research in the industrialized world such as Fermilab in the U.S. and CERN. The workshop will include active research physicists and is aimed at stimulating collaborative ties between researchers in Latin America and at major experimental research centers in the U.S. As such it builds on existing ties with other collaborative particle physics groups elsewhere in Latin America, particularly in Brazil and Mexico. By bringing experimentalists of renown to discuss with their Latin American counterparts feasible projects for developing countries, this workshop serves to advance the objectives of the Science in Developing Countries Program.
