REU Site for Physics at Brigham Young University

杨百翰大学物理与天文学系从6月初到8月中旬为11名有兴趣与该部门的教授一起从事物理和天文学研究项目的本科生举办了为期10周的本科生夏季研究计划（REU）。 这些学生将加入大量的杨百翰大学学生的研究加上社会和户外活动在犹他州的落基山脉夏季。 研究领域包括计算和实验等离子体物理学，高功率激光物理学，X射线和极紫外线源和光学，观测天文学，声学，纳米技术，实验和计算凝聚态物理学，用激光操纵原子和太阳能。 特别鼓励女学生、代表性不足的少数民族和残疾学生申请。 参与者将获得津贴，生活费，并支付往返犹他州普罗沃的旅费。 学生将体验物理研究的兴奋，因为他们与教师导师密切合作。参加者还将接受计算、真空技术、电子学、激光诊断等方面的培训，他们也将有机会发展他们的演讲技巧，因为他们报告他们的工作，参与在杨百翰大学暑期研究的其他学生。 还提供资金支付选定的学生在下一年的国家和区域会议上介绍他们的工作。

The Department of Physics and Astronomy at Brigham Young University hosts a 10-week summer research program for undergraduates (REU) from early June to mid-August for 11 undergraduate students who are interested in working on physics and astronomy research projects with professors in the department. These students will join a large number of BYU students for a summer of research coupled with social and outdoor activities in the Rocky Mountains of Utah. Research areas include computational and experimental plasma physics, high-power laser physics, x-ray and extreme ultraviolet sources and optics, observational astronomy, acoustics, nanotechnology, experimental and computational condensed matter physics, the manipulation of atoms with lasers, and solar energy. Women students, underrepresented minorities, and students with disabilities are especially encouraged to apply. The participants will receive a stipend, living expenses, and paid travel to and from Provo, Utah. Students will experience the excitement of research in physics as they work closely with faculty mentors. Participants will also receive training in computation, vacuum techniques, electronics, laser diagnostics, etc., and will also have an opportunity to develop their presentation skills as they report on their work to other students involved in summer research at BYU. Funds are also available to pay for selected students present their work at national and regional conferences in the following year.
