Support US Physicists Attending "Rencontres de Moriond Conference on Electroweak Interactions and Unified Theories" - La Thuile, Italy

该基金为年轻物理学家参加将在意大利拉图伊勒举行的第47届Rencontres de Moriond会议提供部分支持：(1)电弱相互作用和统一理论（2012年3月3-10日）和(2)QCD和高能强子相互作用（2012年3月10-17日）。2012年的Moriond会议是过渡性的，因为除了美国的CDF， D0， PHENIX和STAR将报告实验结果外，美国科学家发挥主要作用的大型强子对撞机实验（ALICE， ATLAS， CMS和LHCb）的广泛运行将展示新的结果。Moriond仍然是一个独特而绝佳的机会，既可以宣传令人印象深刻的美国粒子物理科学计划，同时也可以让我们最有才华的年轻科学家在这两个主要的欧洲论坛上发表他们的最新成果，从而使他们获得更多的关注。将作出特别努力，鼓励妇女和少数民族参与。

This grant provides partial support for young physicists to attend either of the two sequential 47th Rencontres de Moriond conferences to be held in La Thuile, Italy: (1) Electroweak Interactions and Unified Theories (March 3-10, 2012) and (2) QCD and High Energy Hadronic Interactions (March 10-17, 2012). The Moriond meetings in 2012 are transitional since, besides experimental results to be reported from U.S.-based CDF, D0, PHENIX and STAR, new results will be presented from the extensive running of the LHC Experiments (ALICE, ATLAS, CMS and LHCb) in which the U.S. scientists play a major role. Moriond remains a unique and excellent opportunity to both advertise the impressive U.S. science program in particle physics and at the same time to give our most talented young scientists extra visibility by allowing them to deliver their latest results at these two major European forums. Special efforts will be made to encourage women and minorities to participate.
