NSF support is provided for a workshop on "The Art of Measuring Physical Parameters in Galaxies" to be held during April 10-13th 2018 at the Palm Desert conference center of the University of California, Riverside. This workshop builds upon and extends the successful Cosmic Assembly Near-infrared Deep Extragalactic Legacy Survey (CANDELS) project. The award will help support attendance of 20 younger astronomers and members of the minority groups. There is now an extensive photometric and spectroscopic dataset available for CANDELS galaxies, driving a need to measure their associated physical parameters. The aim of the workshop is to bring together leaders in the field to discuss and identify the optimum ways to measure these parameters using the combined data from X-ray to radio wavelengths, to discuss the state-of-the-art science, and to identify the outstanding and fundamental projects that are only possible by exploiting such data.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

NSF 为将于 2018 年 4 月 10 日至 13 日在加州大学河滨分校棕榈沙漠会议中心举办的“测量星系物理参数的艺术”研讨会提供支持。本次研讨会以成功的宇宙组装近红外深河外遗产巡天 (CANDELS) 项目为基础并进行了扩展。该奖项将帮助支持 20 名年轻天文学家和少数群体成员的参与。 现在 CANDELS 星系有广泛的光度和光谱数据集，因此需要测量其相关的物理参数。研讨会的目的是聚集该领域的领导者，讨论和确定使用从 X 射线到无线电波长的组合数据测量这些参数的最佳方法，讨论最先进的科学，并确定只有利用这些数据才能实现的杰出和基础项目。该奖项反映了 NSF 的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查进行评估，被认为值得支持 标准。
