AST-0201667Gawiser, EricDr. Gawiser is awarded an NSF Astronomy and Astrophysics Postdoctoral Fellowship to carry out a program of research and education at Yale University. He will conduct a wide-field, multicolor survey for galaxies of high redshift (z=3 to 5), which will allow him to measure galaxy clustering. The large number of objects identified in this survey will provide measures of galaxy mass that will discriminate among competing theories of galaxy formation and evolution. His educational program involves a program of public education and outreach at the Rose Center for Earth and Space at the American Museum of Natural History in New York. He will develop tools that will provide general public access to the future virtual observatories of astronomical archival data and will conduct seminars introducing visitors to the techniques for using these virtual observatories. ***

AST-0201667Gawiser，Ericdr。 Gawiser被授予NSF天文学和天体物理学博士后研究金，以在耶鲁大学进行研究和教育计划。 他将对高红移（Z = 3至5）的星系进行宽阔的多色调查，这将使他能够测量星系聚类。 本调查中确定的大量对象将提供星系质量的度量，这些量将在竞争的星系形成和进化中区分竞争理论。 他的教育计划涉及在纽约美国自然历史博物馆的玫瑰地球和太空中心的公共教育和外展计划。 他将开发工具，以提供公众对天文档案数据的未来虚拟观测值的访问，并将开展研讨会，向访问者介绍使用这些虚拟观测值的技术。 ***
