(Meeting Support) Astrophysical Turbulence Conference at the Institute for Theoretical Physics, University of California, Santa Barbara, May 8-12, 2000

为2000年5月在理论物理研究所举行的一次会议提供了部分支助。讲习班的重点是评估天体物理湍流领域的进展前景。讲座围绕几个平行的主题组织：1.天体物理湍流的观测特性，从太阳大气到星际环境。湍流过程物理学，特别强调核燃烧锋面、磁重联、热传导和辐射流体。湍流数值模拟技术。角动量在湍流中的传输。湍流区中的不稳定性和边界层效应。磁力发电机该项目的资金由美国国家科学基金会恒星天文与天体物理学计划(AST/SAA)提供。

Partial support is provided for a meeting to be held at the Institute for Theoretical Physics during May 2000. The focus of the workshop is on evaluating the prospects for advancements in the field of astrophysical turbulence. The talks are organized along several parallel themes:1. Observational properties of astrophysical turbulence, from the Solar atmosphere to the interstellar environment.2. Physics of turbulent processes, with special emphasis on nuclear burning fronts, magnetic reconnection, thermal conduction and radiative fluids.3. Techniques for numerical modeling of turbulent flows.4. Transport of angular momentum via turbulent flows.5. Instabilities and boundary layer effects in turbulent flow regimes.6. Magnetic dynamosFunding for this project was provided by the NSF program for Stellar Astronomy & Astrophysics (AST/SAA).
