Funding Request to Organize DPF 2004 at the University of California, Riverside

该提案要求提供资金，以帮助支付组织2004年美国物理学会粒子与场分部会议（DPF2004）的费用。会议将于2004年8月27日至31日在加州大学滨江分校举行。大会将在全体会议和平行会议上介绍粒子物理学、理论物理学、粒子天体物理学、宇宙学和重离子物理学的最新成果。该计划将包括公众与物理学家互动的机会，并计划由知名演讲者进行公共物理讲座。这些资金将全部用于支持研究生和博士后，否则他们无法参加会议，通过减少会议费和部分旅行支持。

The proposal requests funding to help dray the cost of organizing the 2004 Meeting of the Division of Particles and Fields (DPF2004) of the American Physical Society. The meeting is to be held on the campus of the University of California at Riverside on August 27-31, 2004. The latest results from particle physics, theoretical physics, particle astrophysics, cosmology and heavy ion physics will be presented in both plenary and parallel sessions.The program will include opportunities for the general public to interact with the physicists and there is planned to be a public physics lecture by a well-known speaker. The funds will be used entirely to support graduate students and postdocs, who otherwise could not afford to attend the conference, through reduced conference fees and partial travel support.
