0921403MarolfThis Pan-American Advanced Studies Institutes (PASI) award on quantum gravity, jointly supported by the NSF Office of International Science and Engineering and the Division of Physics, will take place June 23rd through July 3rd, 2010 at the National Autonomous University of Mexico in Morelia, Mexico. Organized by Dr. Donald Marolf of the University of California Santa Barbara (UCSB), the PASI will address active approaches to developing theories of quantum gravity, including String Theory, Loop Quantum Gravity, and the relatively new Causal Dynamical Triangulations. The PASI will feature interactions with 12 distinguished leaders in the field and 40 junior researchers and advanced graduate students from the United States and Latin America. In addition, the activity is scheduled just prior to the 19th International Conference on General Relativity and Gravitation (GR19), to be held July 5-9th, 2010, in Mexico City. Participants to the PASI will be encouraged to attend the GR19 conference, a leading international conference on gravitational physics, where they can build on their PASI experience as well. Expected outcomes of this PASI include the opportunity to establish and solidify Pan-American ties in the field of quantum gravity. Furthermore, the PASI also aims to develop human resources and build international/intercultural connections between participants and lecturers. The results of the PASI will be disseminated through an electronic medium, a PASI website to be constructed at the UCSB to serve as the permanent repository of sound and video recordings of the lectures. The lectures will also be placed in searchable video archives and made available through the internet in visual and audio format.

0921403Marolf 这个关于量子引力的泛美高级研究所 (PASI) 颁奖典礼由 NSF 国际科学与工程办公室和物理部联合支持，将于 2010 年 6 月 23 日至 7 月 3 日在墨西哥莫雷利亚的墨西哥国立自治大学举行。 PASI 由加州大学圣巴巴拉分校 (UCSB) 的 Donald Marolf 博士组织，将探讨发展量子引力理论的积极方法，包括弦理论、圈量子引力和相对较新的因果动力三角测量。 PASI 将与该领域的 12 名杰出领导者以及来自美国和拉丁美洲的 40 名初级研究人员和高级研究生进行互动。此外，该活动定于 2010 年 7 月 5 日至 9 日在墨西哥城举行的第 19 届国际广义相对论和万有引力会议 (GR19) 之前举行。 PASI 的参与者将被鼓励参加 GR19 会议，这是一个领先的引力物理学国际会议，他们也可以在会上积累 PASI 经验。 PASI 的预期成果包括有机会在量子引力领域建立和巩固泛美关系。此外，PASI 还旨在开发人力资源并在参与者和讲师之间建立国际/跨文化联系。 PASI 的结果将通过电子媒介传播，PASI 网站将在 UCSB 建设，作为讲座录音和视频记录的永久存储库。讲座还将被放置在可搜索的视频档案中，并通过互联网以视频和音频格式提供。
