REU Site: Summer Undergraduate Research Program in Nuclear Physics at the Indiana University Cyclotron Facility

印第安纳大学回旋加速器设施核物理本科生暑期研究项目的主要目标是为有前途的物理学本科生提供有意义的、令人兴奋的和具有挑战性的科学研究经验。1992- 1994年，每年有15名学生参加国际自然保护基金会和核理论中心的实验和理论研究项目，为期10周的夏季学期。这些学生将从美国各地的大学和机构中招募，优先考虑中西部地区的机构以及本科生研究机会有限的小型机构。预计90%的学生将来自印第安纳大学布卢明顿分校以外的机构，其中至少25%的学生将是女性。参加者将在教员和资深科研人员的指导下，通过从事核物理、核化学和加速器物理方面的项目，获得直接的研究经验。我们将为学生们安排特别的课程，包括迎新课程、每周关于物理学最新研究的研讨会和机械车间迷你课程。在夏季学期结束时，学生将根据他们的工作提交研究论文，并在闭幕研讨会上介绍研究成果。

The principal goal of the Summer Undergraduate Research Program in Nuclear Physics at the Indiana University Cyclotron Facility is to provide promising undergraduate physics majors with a meaningful, exiting and challenging experience in scientific research. Fifteen students per year will be involved in experimental and theoretical research projects at IUCF and the Nuclear Theory Center for 10-week summer terms in the 3-year period 1992-94. The students will be recruited from colleges and institutions throughout the U.S., with preference to institutions within the Midwest as well as small institutions where research opportunities for undergraduates may be limited. It is expected that 90% of the students will come from institutions other than Indiana University at Bloomington, and that at least 25% of the students will be women. The participants will gain direct research experience by working on projects in nuclear physics, nuclear chemistry and accelerator physics, under the supervision of faculty members and senior scientific staff. Special programs for the students will be arranged, including orientation sessions, weekly seminars on current research in physics, and a machine shop mini-course. At the end of the summer term, the students will submit research papers based on their work, and present the results in seminars at a closing symposium.
