String Phenomenology 2011: The Tenth Annual Meeting on String Phenomenology at the University of Wisconsin, Madison, August 22-26, 2011

该奖项为将于2011年8月22日至26日在美国威斯康星大学麦迪逊分校举行的2011年字符串现象学会议提供部分支持。这笔资金将用于补贴外地年轻研究人员的费用，并减轻会议规划和设施的费用。字符串现象学2011是非常成功的字符串现象学会议系列的第十届年会，该会议于2002年在牛津大学启动。弦现象学年会已经成为展示和传播弦现象学日益增长的领域的研究进展和成果的标志性场所，该领域的重点是如何将可观测粒子物理学和宇宙学与基础理论领域联系起来这一根本问题。特别鼓励年轻研究人员参加会议，介绍他们的工作，并与该领域的知名领导者互动。在挑选被邀请的发言者并宣传在平行会议上向社区介绍演讲的机会时，高度优先考虑的是招募合格的妇女和代表人数不足的少数群体。涵盖的主题包括弦紧凑化和由此产生的有效理论的进展，模稳定和超对称破缺，形式理论和数学技术，弦宇宙学，以及与粒子物理和宇宙学现有和即将到来的实验结果的联系。弦现象学是一个动态和不断增长的领域，在这个以欧洲核子研究中心的大型强子对撞机和大量宇宙学数据为特征的数据主导的时代，特别令人感兴趣。科学计划包括该领域领先研究人员的全体演讲。弦现象学会议是多种多样的国际会议，强调形式理论和观察之间的联系，因此对这两个领域的知识进步都有影响。对年轻研究人员的重视允许广泛的受众，并促进该领域的年轻研究人员。这一系列会议是致力于理论高能物理这一子领域的唯一一次大型年度会议，因此它们对该领域的发展非常重要。会议网站将被开发和宣传，以传播会议上提出的材料，包括所有全体会议的演讲幻灯片。

This award provides partial support for the String Phenomenology 2011 conference to be held at the University of Wisconsin, Madison, WI, USA on August 22-26, 2011. The funds will be used to subsidize the costs for young researchers in the field and to mitigate the cost of conference planning and facilities. String Phenomenology 2011 is the tenth annual meeting of the highly successful String Phenomenology conference series, which was launched in 2002 at Oxford University. The String Phenomenology annual conferences have become the hallmark venue for the presentation and dissemination of research progress and results in the growing field of string phenomenology, which focuses on the fundamental question of how to connect observable particle physics and cosmology with the domain of fundamental theory. Young researchers are particularly encouraged to attend the conference to present their work and interact with established leaders in the field. In selecting the invited speakers and advertising the opportunity to present talks in the parallel sessions to the community, it is a high priority to recruit qualified women and underrepresented minorities. Topics covered include advances in string compactifications and the resulting effective theories, moduli stabilization and supersymmetry breaking, formal theory and mathematical techniques, string cosmology, and connections to present and forthcoming experimental results in particle physics and cosmology.String phenomenology is a dynamic and ever-growing field that is of particular interest in this data-dominated era characterized by Large Hadron Collider at CERN and a wealth of cosmological data. The scientific program includes plenary talks by leading researchers in the field. The String Phenomenology conferences are diverse, international meetings that emphasize the connections between formal theory and observations, and as such have impact on the intellectual progress in both areas. The emphasis on including young researchers allows for a broad audience and promotes young researchers in the field. This conference series provides the only large-scale annual meetings dedicated to this subfield of theoretical high energy physics, and thus they are of great importance to the advancement of the field.The conference website will be developed and advertised to disseminate the material presented at the meeting, including all plenary talk slides.
