Conference: Dynamical Chaos in Classical and Quantum Physics, Novosibirsk, Russia; August 4-9, 2003

该提案要求支持六名美国青年科学家参加2003年8月4日至9日在俄罗斯新西伯利亚的Budker核物理研究所举行的“经典和量子物理中的动力学混沌”国际会议。在动力混沌中，即使运动方程中没有随机参数，确定性动力系统也会表现出随机行为。这种现象在物理学、生物学、经济学等学科中都有发现。本次会议将尝试对该领域的许多经典和量子方面进行概述。它在新西伯利亚举行，是为了向动力学混沌的创始人之一鲍里斯·奇里科夫（Boris Chirikov）致敬。

This proposal requests support for six junior US scientists to attend an international conference "Dynamical Chaos in Classical and Quantum Physics" which will be held at the Budker Institute of Nuclear Physics in Novosibirsk, Russia, August 4-9, 2003. In Dynamical Chaos a deterministic dynamical system can exhibit random behavior even though there are no random parameters in the equation of motion. This phenomenom has been found to occur in physics, biology, economics and other disciplines. This conference will attempt to give an overview of the many classical and quantum aspects of the field. It is being held in Novosibirsk as a tributre to Boris Chirikov, one of the founders of dynamical chaos.
