U.S.-Indo Workshop on New Directions in the Interaction of Energetic Protons with Matter

描述：本提案要求支持美印研讨会，题为“高能光子与物质相互作用研究的新方向”。讲习班将于1995年11月在印度大吉岭召开，为期一周，由北孟加拉大学及其附属机构圣约瑟夫学院主办。协调员是匹兹堡大学的Richard Pratt和北孟加拉大学的Swapan Sen Gupta。它的主题是高能光子与物质的相互作用，如光吸收、光子原子散射、轫致辐射和对产生等过程。来自印度和美国研究界的领导人将共同研究新兴技术提供的机会，并确定研究的新方向。范围：考虑到新一代同步加速器的出现所产生的对这一主题的兴趣，研讨会是重要的。高能光子与物质的相互作用是一个现代领域，两国都有悠久的研究传统。印度在这一领域正在进行大量的实验工作，开展合作研究活动的基础非常牢固。会议记录将会出版。***巴基斯坦和是在这一领域从事研究的科学家之间发展关系的下一步。美国的研究领域。正在进行的关系在信息交流中不断发展。非加速器粒子物理学国际会议将于1994年1月2日至9日在印度班加罗尔召开。加州大学欧文分校的Gaurang B. Yodh和印度班加罗尔天体物理研究所的塔塔基础研究所主任R. Cowsik是组织者。本次会议致力于讨论来自非加速器粒子物理不同领域的基础物理学，如：太阳中微子天文学、宇宙射线、粒子物理、中微子物理和暗物质探测。在过去的五年中，这些领域已经取得了实质性的进展，人们普遍认为，对标准模型之外的几个物理问题的明确答案现在可以从非加速器的研究方法中得到。与会者将回顾粒子物理学各个方面的最新发展，它们在天体物理学情况下的影响，暗物质的实验探测，理论解释以及宇宙大尺度结构的经验和物理模型。范围：本次会议将先于印度天体物理研究所和加州大学欧文分校之间的一个重大跨学科研究项目。由于美国在本次会议讨论的所有领域都在进行大量研究，因此美国研究人员向来自世界各地的一些最受尊敬的科学家组成的国际机构展示他们的工作将是非常重要的。＊＊＊

The workshop will convene in Darjeeling, India, November 1995 and will be hosted for its one week duration by the North Bengal University and its affiliate, St. Joseph's College. The coordinators are Richard Pratt, University of Pittsburgh and Swapan Sen Gupta, North Bengal University. Its subject is the interaction of energetic photons with matter, as in such processes as photoabsorption, photon atom scattering, bremsstrahlung and pair production. Leaders from Indian and US research communities will together examine the opportunities provided by emerging technologies and identify new directions for the research. Scope: The workshop is important considering the interest in this subject that has been generated by the advent of a new generation of synchrotrons. The interaction of energetic photons with matter is a modern field in which there is a long tradition of research in both countries. There is substantial experimental work going on in India in this field and the basis for developing cooperative research activities very strong. Proceedings of the workshop will be published. *** Pakistan and is the next step in developing a relationship between scientists who are doing research in this field. s area of research. ngoing relationship in the exchange of information foin developing . The International Conference on Non- Accelerator Particle Physics will convene in Bangalore, India from January 2-9, 1994. Gaurang B. Yodh, University of California, Irvine and R. Cowsik, Tata Institute of Fundamental Research and Director, Indian Institute of Astrophysics, Bangalore are the organizers. This conference is dedicated to the discussion of the fundamental physics that emerges from diverse areas of non-acc elerator particle physics such as: Solar Neutrino Astronomy, Cosmic Rays, Particle Physics, Neutrino Physics and the Detection of Dark Matter. Substantial progress has been made in these fields during the past five years and it is widely thought that definitive answers to several questions of Physics beyond the Standard Model can now come from Non- Accelerator methods of inquiry. The conferees will review recent developments in the various aspects of Particle Physics, their implications in astrophysical situations, experimental detection of dark matter, theoretical interpretation and empirical and physical models of the large scale structure of the Universe. Scope: This conference will precede a major interdisciplinary research program between the Indian Institute of Astrophysics and the University of California, Irvine. As considerable research is going on in the US in all fields to be discussed at this conference, it will be important for the US researchers to present their work to an international body of some of the most respected scientists from all over the world. ***
