This is a three year grant for the renewal of regional undergraduate participation in ongoing research programs in the Department of Physics, Florida State University. Applications for ten Summer Junior Fellowship positions are solicited from 160 colleges and universities throughout the southeastern region of the United States. Applicants' interests are matched with the research programs and extra attention is given to applications from women and minorities. The main focus of the program is to provide research experience for undergraduate physics majors in the southeast region, with usually 9 out of 10 fellowships going to students outside of FSU. The laboratories include a S-FN Tandem Van de Graaff, a superconducting LINAC, four smaller accelerators used for environmental and implantation studies, and a particle physics detector laboratory as well as active programs at Brookhaven, Fermilab and CERN, an ultra-high resolution infrared spectrometer, a helium atom scattering spectrometer, a liquid crystal laboratory, and a number of low temperature solid state research facilities. Approximately 15 to 20 faculty members will be directly involved with Summer Junior Fellows. In addition to joint research activities, all Fellows will attend a seminar designed for the program and will present papers and talks on their summer research near the end of the appointment. Each summer two or three of the Fellows will work with the host group (nuclear physics), with the seminar series, short courses in computer programming and machine shop techniques, and the student talks providing the common links between the different areas of physics.

这是一项为期三年的拨款，用于续签佛罗里达州立大学物理系正在进行的研究项目的地区本科生。十个暑期少年奖学金职位的申请是从美国东南部地区的160所学院和大学征集的。申请者的兴趣与研究项目相匹配，并特别关注来自妇女和少数民族的申请。该项目的主要重点是为东南部地区的物理专业本科生提供研究经验，通常10个奖学金中有9个提供给佛罗里达州立大学以外的学生。这些实验室包括一台S-FN串联式Van de Graaff，一个超导直线加速器，四个用于环境和注入研究的较小加速器，一个粒子物理探测器实验室，以及布鲁克海文、费米实验室和欧洲核子研究中心的活动项目，一个超高分辨率红外光谱仪，一个氦原子散射仪，一个液晶实验室，以及一批低温固态研究设施。大约有15到20名教职员工将直接参与暑期青年学者的活动。除了联合研究活动，所有研究员将参加为该项目设计的研讨会，并将在任命结束时提交关于他们夏季研究的论文和演讲。每年夏天，两到三名研究员将与主办方(核物理)合作，举办系列研讨会、计算机编程和机械车间技术方面的短期课程，以及学生讲座，提供不同物理领域之间的共同联系。
