BCSPIN KATHMANDU SUMMER SCHOOL "Non-Perturbative Phenomena and Selected Current Topics in Condensed Matter and ParticlePhysics", May 20-June 8, 1990, Kathmandu, Nepal

描述：该项目为美国科学家参加计划于1990年5月20日至6月8日举办的“凝聚态和粒子物理学中的非微扰现象和当前选定的主题”的加德曼杜暑期学校提供支持。该学派强调凝聚态、粒子物理学和宇宙学这三个领域的跨学科性质。将涵盖的领域包括泛函方法、拓扑结构及其在凝聚态和粒子物理中的应用、反常、动力学对称破缺、超导和二维共形场论。预计讲师将来自美国、西欧和苏联。学生来自亚洲六个国家，包括中国、印度、巴基斯坦、孟加拉国、斯里兰卡和尼泊尔。范围：亚洲国家的学生和年轻研究人员参加来自世界各地的著名科学家的讲座，极大地增强了这些国家的科学潜力，并促进了它们之间以及与美国的科学合作。这是继会议之后的第二次会议，美国和欧洲的出色参与证明了会议的成功，并得到了意大利的里雅斯特国际理论物理中心的部分支持。

Description: This project provides support for U.S. scientists to participate in the Kathmamdu Summer School on "Non-Perturbative Phenomena and Selected Current Topics in Condensed Matter and Particle Physics" which is planned for May 20-June 8, 1990. The school emphasizes the interdisciplinary nature of the three fields of condensed matter, particle physics, and cosmology. The areas to be covered include introduction to functional methods, topological structures and their applications to condensed matter and particle physics, anomalies, dynamical symmetry breaking, superconductivity and two-dimensional conformal field theories. Lecturers are expected from the U.S., Western Europe and the USSR. Students come from six cuntries in Asia including China, India, Pakistan, Bangledesh, Sri Lanka and Nepal. Scope: The exposure of students and young researchers from Asian countries to the lectures by eminent scientists from around the world greatly strengthens the scientific potential in these countries, and fosters scientific cooperation between them and with the U.S. This meeting is the second in a seies, following a 1989 meeting that proved successful by the excellent participation from the U.S. and Europe, and with partial support from the International Centre for Theorectical Physics, Trieste, Italy.
