9513843 Ashtekar Description: This proposal requests support for the "US-Indo Binational Workshop on Classical and Quantum Gravity", to be held at the Inter-University Centre for Astronomy and Astrophysics (IUCAA), Pune, December 13-19, 1995. The workshop organizers are Professor Abhay Ashtekar and Post-doc Jorge Pullin of the Center for Gravitational Physics and Geometry, Penn State University, and J.V. Narlikar, Director of IUCAA. This workshop will take advantage of India's distinguished tradition in general relativity as well as their significant investments in radio and optical astronomy which recently have stimulated further research in general relativity, astrophysics and cosmology. Rapid progress in the interface of general relativity with astrophysics, cosmology, particle physics, quantum theory and certain branches of mathematics has added to the number of directions of active research. The workshop will bring US participants together with key Indian scientists working in gravitational physics with the aim of developing collaborative links between research groups in the US and India in well-defined areas of gravitational physics. Scope: The event will be hosted by the IUCAA and is supported by the Department of Science and Technology. US scientists will have a unique opportunity to gain direct knowledge about the research being carried out by first-rate Indian scientists and to meet next generation leaders. Considering the calibre of young Indian scientists now working in this field, there is a high probability that even more important contributions will arise from collaborative efforts with the US scientists. ***

9513843 Ashtekar说明：本提案要求支持将于1995年12月13日至19日在浦那大学间天文学和天体物理学中心（IUCAA）举行的“美国-印度经典和量子引力双边研讨会”。 研讨会的组织者是宾夕法尼亚州立大学引力物理和几何中心的Abhay Ashtekar教授和博士后Jorge Pullin以及IUCAA主任J. V. Narlikar。 这次讲习班将利用印度在广义相对论方面的杰出传统以及他们在射电和光学天文学方面的重大投资，这些投资最近促进了广义相对论、天体物理学和宇宙学方面的进一步研究。 广义相对论与天体物理学、宇宙学、粒子物理学、量子理论和某些数学分支的接口的迅速进展增加了活跃研究的方向。 该研讨会将使美国参与者与在引力物理学领域工作的主要印度科学家聚集在一起，旨在发展美国和印度研究小组之间在引力物理学明确领域的合作联系。 范围：该活动将由IUCAA主办，并得到科学和技术部的支持。 美国科学家将有一个独特的机会直接了解一流的印度科学家正在进行的研究，并与下一代领导人会面。 考虑到目前在这一领域工作的印度年轻科学家的素质，与美国科学家的合作很可能会做出更重要的贡献。 ***
