This grant will continue support of the Research Experiences for Undergraduates Site in the Physics Department of the University of Nevada-Las Vegas. Students will be involved in research efforts in the areas of atomic, molecular and optical physics, astronomy/astrophysics, condensed matter physics, and high pressure science. Students will have the opportunity to obtain hands-on laboratory experience in laser laboratories, to analyze astronomical data on workstations using image analysis software, and to perform numerical computation and simulation using the powerful 12 GFLOP Keck Computational Physics Facility. A series of group activities provides an introduction to research, a discussion of research ethics, a seminar in how to give a scientific presentation, as well as social functions. Students will be recruited from UNLV undergraduates and from other colleges and universities, with special attention paid to selected schools ion the West and Mid-West.

这笔赠款将继续支持内华达大学拉斯维加斯分校物理系的本科生研究经验。 学生将参与原子，分子和光学物理，天文学/天体物理，凝聚态物理和高压科学领域的研究工作。 学生将有机会在激光实验室获得实践经验，使用图像分析软件在工作站上分析天文数据，并使用强大的12 GFLOP凯克计算物理设施进行数值计算和模拟。 一系列的小组活动提供了一个介绍研究，研究伦理的讨论，如何给一个科学演示，以及社会功能的研讨会。 学生将从UNLV的本科生和其他学院和大学中招募，特别注意西部和中西部的选定学校。
