The funding from this grant will be used to support US graduate students attending the 2013 International Conference on Laser Spectroscopy (ICOLS), which will be held in Berkeley, CA during the week of June 9-14, 2013. This international meeting is the 21st in a series of biennial conferences at which the world-wide community of atomic, molecular and optical (AMO) physicists gather to present and discuss the cutting edge work from this broad, vibrant research field. The conference is prestigious and well attended by the luminaries of AMO physics (including several Nobel Laureates) and also by the latest rising stars. The meeting centers around plenary invited talks and several poster sessions, and spans the forefront fields of AMO science including ultrafast optics, ultracold atomic gases, precision tests of fundamental physics, molecular spectroscopy, quantum information, many-body quantum physics, cavity optomechanics, and others.The conference is particularly valuable for young scientists -- graduate students and postdoctoral researchers. The gathering is typically smaller than the other central meetings of the field, such as the APS DAMOP annual meeting and the International Conference on Atomic Physics. As such, rising scientists have greater access to the most influential scientists in the field, giving them a chance to learn, to discuss physics at a high level, and to establish relationships to further their scientific careers. This year's ICOLS also gives students and postdocs access to the premier scientific institutions in the Bay Area, particularly the University of California, Berkeley, and the Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory, both of whom are sponsoring receptions and open houses in coordination with the meeting. NSF support of this meeting is thus a strong contribution to graduate student and postdoctoral training, and also a strong contribution to the advancement of AMO physics in the United States and worldwide.

这笔赠款的资金将用于支持美国研究生参加2013年国际激光光谱学会议（ICOLS），该会议将于2013年6月9日至14日在加州伯克利举行。 这次国际会议是一系列两年一度的会议中的第21次，在这些会议上，世界范围的原子，分子和光学（AMO）物理学家聚集在一起，展示和讨论这个广泛，充满活力的研究领域的前沿工作。 该会议享有盛誉，AMO物理学的杰出人物（包括几位诺贝尔奖获得者）以及最新的后起之秀都出席了会议。 会议以全体邀请演讲和多场海报展示会为中心，涵盖了超快光学、超冷原子气体、基础物理精密测试、分子光谱学、量子信息、多体量子物理、腔光力学等AMO科学前沿领域，对研究生和博士后等青年科学家特别有价值。 该会议的规模通常小于该领域的其他中心会议，如APS DAMOP年会和国际原子物理会议。 因此，新兴科学家有更多的机会接触该领域最有影响力的科学家，让他们有机会学习，在高层次上讨论物理学，并建立关系，以促进他们的科学事业。 今年的ICOLS还为学生和博士后提供了进入湾区首屈一指的科学机构的机会，特别是加州大学伯克利分校和劳伦斯伯克利实验室，这两所大学都在赞助招待会和开放日。 因此，NSF对这次会议的支持是对研究生和博士后培训的有力贡献，也是对美国和全球AMO物理学进步的有力贡献。
