8th Meeting on HYDRODYNAMIC QUANTUM ANALOGS

第八届流体力学量子模拟会议(HQA8)定于2018年7月23-27日在布朗大学举行。我们预计将有来自美国、墨西哥、巴西、比利时、澳大利亚和联合王国等世界各国的约30名与会者出席会议。HQA8是该领域一系列会议的第八次，该领域始于伊夫·库德和伊曼纽尔·福特关于行走水滴的开创性工作。液滴可以行走吗？通过与其产生的波场的共振相互作用，在相同液体的振动浴缸表面反弹。水滴和波的集合被称为步行者，它构成了宏观尺度上的波-粒子关联，已被证明显示出几个类似量子的特征。资金将用于为无法出席的学生和研究人员提供旅行支持，以及支持与研讨会本身相关的一些费用。这一奖励反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力优势和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

The 8th Meeting on Hydrodynamic Quantum Analogs (HQA8) is scheduled to beheld on July 23-27, 2018 at Brown University. We anticipate that the meeting will be attendedby approximately 30 participants from countries worldwide including: United States, Mexico,Brazil, Belgium, Australia, and the United Kingdom. HQA8 it the eighth of a series of meetingson a field that began with the pioneering work of Yves Couder and Emmanuel Fort on walkingdroplets. A liquid droplet can ?walk? by bouncing on the surface of a vibrating bath of the sameliquid through a resonant interaction with the wave field it creates. The ensemble of drop andwaves has been called a walker, which constitutes a wave-particle association at the macroscopicscale which have been shown to exhibit several quantum-like features. Funding will be used toprovide travel support for students and researchers that would otherwise be unable to attend aswell as to support some costs associated with the workshop itself.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.
