Canadian Institute for Theoretical Astrophysics/Institut Canadien D'Astrophysique Theorique

加拿大理论天体物理研究所(CITA)是一个独特的国家和国际研究和高级培训中心。它成立于1984年，得到了NSERC的支持和支持，现已成为天体物理学领域的世界领先者，其活动确保了加拿大将继续在这一备受瞩目的领域发挥影响力。CITA的研究人员解决了太阳系、行星、恒星、星系、星团、宇宙的大尺度结构和生命的起源和进化--这些基本问题令每个人都着迷。作为一个与观测和仪器研究领域的领导者密切互动的理论中心，CITA处于有利地位，可以在这个史无前例的宇宙发现时代创造由技术创新引发的智力发酵。它的研究人员是这场革命的先锋，无论是对加拿大和国际重大项目的领导，还是对已发表的研究结果的影响。

The Canadian Institute for Theoretical Astrophysics (CITA) is a unique national and international centre of research and advanced training. Founded in 1984 with NSERC endorsement and support, it has become a world leader in the field of astrophysics and its activities ensure that Canada will remain an influential player in this high-profile area. Researchers at CITA address questions about the origin and evolution of the solar system, planets, stars, galaxies, clusters, the large-scale structure of the Universe, and life -- fundamental questions that fascinate everyone. As a theory centre that interacts closely with leaders in observational and instrumentation research, CITA is optimally placed to create the intellectual ferment that arises from technical innovation in this unprecedented era of discovery of the universe. Its researchers are in the vanguard of the revolution, in terms of both leadership of major Canadian and international projects and impact of the published results of the research.
