International Workshop on Physics at the Planck Scale, Puri, India, December, 1994, Group Travel award in Indian and U.S. Currencies

9406938 DAS描述：该项目支持美国物理学家参加将于1994年12月在印度普里举行的普朗克级物理学国际研讨会。印度的组织者是印度布巴内斯瓦尔751005的物理研究所的J.Maharana教授。该研讨会旨在汇聚在该领域工作的大多数印度活跃物理学家，以及世界上一些最著名的物理学家，讨论物理学的一些最基本的问题。主题将是：黑洞及其蒸发的物理学，宇宙在非常早期的演化，宇宙常数的问题，以及自然力的基本统一的问题。范围：拟议研讨会的科学领域是印度科学界作出显著贡献的领域。参加讲习班的一些印度人很有可能为实地现有的知识体系作出贡献。这一理论物理领域一直受到来自工业化程度较低国家的科学家的欢迎，在这些国家，现代实验物理设施并不容易获得。研讨会将提供信息交流，并鼓励在这一相对低成本的研究中进行联合研究和合作。***

9406938 Das Description: This project supports participation by U.S. physicists in an international workshop on the physics at the Planck scale, to be held in Puri, India, in December, 1994. The Indian organizer is Professor J. Maharana of the Institute of Physics, Bhubaneswar 751 005, India. The workshop is designed to bring together most of the active physicists of India working in the area, along with some of the most eminent physicists of the world, to discuss some of the most fundamental problems of physics. the Topics will be: physics of black holes and their evaporations, evolution of the Universe at very early epochs, the problem of the cosmological constant, as well as the question of unification of fundamental forces of Nature. Scope: The scientific field of the proposed workshop is one in which the Indian scientific community has made noticeable contributions. There is a real potential that some of the Indian participants in the workshop will contribute to the body of knowledge available in the field. This area of theoretical physics has been popular with scientists from less industrialized countries where modern experimental physics facilities are not readily available. The workshop will provide for exchanges of information and stimulate joint research and collaboration in this relatively low-cost research. ***
