Eighteenth Exotic Beam Summer School at ORNL June 23-29, 2019

该奖项为学生参加2019年6月23日至29日在橡树岭国家实验室举行的第十八届外来光束（EBSS）物理暑期学校提供支持。学院招收研究生、积极从事科研工作的本科高年级学生和博士后（毕业2年内）。学校将由上午的讲座和下午的实践活动组成。学生们也将有机会展示他们的研究成果。暑期学校的目的是教育下一代科学家，他们将在稀有同位素光束设施（FRIB）和其他现有的稀有同位素设施上线后推动研究。未来几年，低能核物理学的重大进展将对社会产生广泛的影响，从我们对元素起源的理解到加强国家安全。这些暑期学校的前几届有代表性不足的物理群体广泛参与，前四届暑期学校的参与者中约有30%是女性。第十八届EBSS的组织者将继续使用公认的最佳实践来增加多样性，并拥有一个包容性的暑期学校。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

This award provides support for students to participate in the Eighteenth Summer School on Exotic Beam (EBSS) Physics at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory, June 23 - 29, 2019. The school is designed for graduate students, senior undergraduate students who are actively involved in research and postdocs (within 2 years of their degree). The school will consist of morning lectures and hands-on activities in the afternoons. Students will also have an opportunity to present their research. The aim of the summer school is to educate the next generation of scientists who will drive the research at the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB) when it comes online and other existing rare isotope facilities. In years to come, substantial progress in low-energy nuclear physics will have a broad impact on society, ranging from our understanding of the origin of the elements to the enhancement of national security. Previous sessions of these summer schools have had broad participation of under-represented groups in physics, with approximately 30% of the participants of the previous four summer schools being female. The organizers of the Eighteenth EBSS will continue the use of accepted best practices to increase diversity and have an inclusive summer schoolThis 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.
