U.S.-Mexico Collaborative Program: ICFA International School/Workshop on Instrumentation in High Energy Physics, July 7-19, 1997, Guanajuato, Mexico

这笔美墨奖金将部分支持在墨西哥瓜纳华托大学Fisica研究所举办的1997年基本粒子物理仪器学院。所要求的资金是为参加这个学校/研讨会的美国学生提供旅费支持，该研讨会将聚集来自美国和拉丁美洲发展中国家的学生和研究人员。会议的共同组织者是威斯康辛大学的Marleigh Sheaff博士和墨西哥研究中心（CINVESTAV）或墨西哥国家技术研究所（IPA）的Gerardo Herrera博士。该学院将包括讲授当前实验粒子物理学中使用的各种最先进的仪器技术的课程，并辅以旨在演示所提供材料的实验室课程。目标是鼓励发展中国家的年轻物理学家更多地参与基本粒子物理实验，并鼓励未来在实验基本粒子物理方面的合作。虽然要介绍的仪器技术是目前在粒子物理学中使用的，但许多仪器技术在医学成像或材料的非破坏性评价方面具有广泛的应用。＊＊＊

9704119 Sheaff This U.S.-Mexico award will partially support the 1997 School on Instrumentation in Elementary Particle Physics, to take place at the Instituto de Fisica of the Universidad de Guanajuato, Mexico. The funds requested are to provide travel support for students from the U.S. to attend this school/workshop, which will assemble students and researchers from the U.S. and from developing countries in Latin America. Co-organizers of the meeting are Dr. Marleigh Sheaff of the University of Wisconsin and Dr. Gerardo Herrera of the Centro de Investigacion y Estudios Avanzados (CINVESTAV) or the Instituto Tecnico Nacional (IPA) in Mexico City. The School will consist of lecture courses in various state of-the-art instrumentation techniques in current use in experimental particle physics, augmented by laboratory courses designed to demonstrate the material presented. The goal is to encourage increased participation by young physicists from developing countries in elementary particle physics experiments and to encourage future collaborations in experimental elementary particle physics. While the instrumentation techniques to be presented are those currently in use in particle physics, many have wide-ranging applications to medical imaging or to the non-destructive evaluation of materials. ***
