Graduate Training in Innovative Instrumentation for the Study of Complex Physical Phenomena

这项行动将支持在高级研究仪器领域为六个受训人员提供为期五年的支助。康奈尔大学拥有各种各样的主要设施，拥有用于粒子物理实验和凝聚态研究的独特设备。该计划的受训人员将使用这些设施学习如何设计新的方法来测量基本身体兴趣的数量。技术培训将包括广泛的现代和复杂的专业，从加速器设计和极低温度物理到微制造和材料表征。将把主要重点放在用妇女和以前代表不足的少数群体填补受训职位上。康奈尔大学物理系在过去20年里致力于培训女物理学家，并取得了越来越大的成功。该计划将允许加强这些努力。

Support of six Traineeships for five years in the area of advanced research instrumentation will be supported by this action. Cornell has a wide variety of major facilities with unique equipment for experiments in particle physics and studies of condensed matter. Trainees under the program would use these facilities to learn how to devise new methods for measuring quantities of fundamental physical interest. The technological training would embrace a wide range of modern and complex specialties ranging from accelerator design and very low temperature physics to microfabrication and materials characterization. Major emphasis would be placed upon filling the Traineeships with women and previously underrepresented minorities. The Cornell Physics Department has demonstrated its commitment to training women physicists with increasing success over the past 20 years. The program would permit an enhancement of those efforts.
