Workshop on Extra Solar Neutrino Astronomy; Los Angeles, California; September 30- October 3, 1987

这笔拨款为非太阳中微子天文学研讨会提供部分支持，特别是关于未来中微子探测器和中微子望远镜的发展。中微子是非常难以捉摸的核粒子。大多数中微子直接穿过地球。直到最近，唯一捕获到的天文中微子来自太阳。但最近观测到的超新星最初是通过恒星爆炸初期发射的中微子探测到的。捕获到的中微子的数量与先前的估计一致，并表明通过更好的中微子探测器可以了解更多关于宇宙爆炸的信息。这笔拨款支持一个研讨会，讨论目前和未来可能的中微子探测器和中微子望远镜。

This grant provides partial support for a workshop on non-solar neutrino astronomy, specifically concerning the development of future neutrino detectors and neutrino telescopes. Neutrinos are very elusive nuclear particles. Most neutrinos pass right through the Earth. Until recently, the only captured astronomical neutrinos came from the Sun. But the recently observed supernova was first detected through the neutrinos emitted at the very beginning of that stellar explosion. The number of captured neutrinos is consistent with earlier estimates and demonstrates that vastly more information about cosmic explosions could be learned through better neutrino detectors. This grant supports a workshop to discuss present and possible future neutrino detectors and neutrino telescopes.
