AST 0239881WittThis award will provide partial funding for the support of travel of young scientists, to make it possible for them to attend an international symposium on the Astrophysics of Dust, scheduled to convene in Estes Park, CO, in May, 2003.This is the first comprehensive symposium dealing with observational, theoretical, and laboratory-based aspects of cosmic dust since 1988, with participants expected from numerous countries from five continents. The coming decade will provide several new space- and ground-based observing facilities whose primary subject will be the study of emissions from and through dusty astrophysical environments. The full and productive utilization of these facilities will require close collaboration between astronomers and scientists from related disciplines in physics, materials science and chemistry. The Astrophysics of Dust symposium is intended to provide the forum for close interactions between members of these different groups. It is of particular importance that young astronomers, just entering the field of dust-related astrophysics, have the ability to participate in this symposium and make the essential professional and personal connections with other colleagues in the field, which will enhance their future scientific contributions to this rapidly growing sub-discipline within astronomy.***

该奖项将为年轻科学家的旅行提供部分资助，使他们有可能参加定于2003年5月在科罗拉多州埃斯特斯公园举行的关于尘埃天体物理的国际研讨会。这是自1988年以来第一次涉及宇宙尘埃的观测、理论和实验室方面的综合性研讨会，预计将有来自五大洲的许多国家的与会者参加。未来十年将提供几个新的天基和陆基观测设施，其主要主题将是研究多尘天体物理环境的排放情况。充分和富有成效地利用这些设施将需要天文学家和来自物理、材料科学和化学相关学科的科学家密切合作。尘埃天体物理学专题讨论会旨在为这些不同小组成员之间的密切互动提供论坛。特别重要的是，刚刚进入与尘埃有关的天体物理学领域的年轻天文学家有能力参加这次研讨会，并与该领域的其他同事建立必要的专业和个人联系，这将增强他们未来对天文学中这一迅速发展的分支学科的科学贡献。
