U.S.-Australian Joint Workshop on Helioseismology and the Internal Structure of the Sun

小行星9316179 这项奖金将资助10名美国资深和年轻科学家参加1994年1月中旬在澳大利亚悉尼举行的日震学和太阳内部结构讲习班。 美国协调员是 John Leibacher博士来自国家光学天文台/国家太阳天文台。 澳大利亚协调员是悉尼大学的Peter Wilson教授。 该讲习班是在美国-澳大利亚合作科学方案下举办的，澳大利亚的支助是通过工业、技术和区域发展部提供的。 日震学是研究太阳内部共振腔中捕获的声振荡的一个新的令人兴奋的领域，有望提供一种测量太阳内部结构和动力学特征的手段。美国国家科学基金会赞助的全球振荡网络小组（GONG）项目将从1994年开始在全世界部署一个由六个振荡观测站组成的网络。 这些观测站将在三年的时间里每天24小时对太阳进行监视。其中一个观测站将设在澳大利亚西部的里尔蒙斯太阳观测站。 该讲习班的目的是增加澳大利亚科学家在日震学方面的参与，并启动合作研究方案。 研讨会将分为由公认的专家和传统的研究演示教程。 主要的主题将是太阳振荡，太阳内部模型，对流，发电机和日震反演的物理学。 ***

9316179 Leibacher This award will support the participation of ten U.S. senior and junior scientists to participate in a workshop on helioseismology and the internal structure of the Sun to be held in Sydney, Australia in mid-January 1994. The American coordinator is Dr. John Leibacher from the National Optical Astronomy Observatories / National Solar Observatory. The Australian coordinator is Prof. Peter Wilson of the University of Sydney. This workshop is being conducted under the U.S. - Australia Cooperative Science Program and support in Australia is provided through the Department of Industry, Technology and Regional Development (DITARD). Helioseismology, the study of acoustic oscillations trapped in resonant cavities within the Sun, is a new and exciting field that promises to provide a means of measuring the characteristics of the internal structure and dynamics of the Sun. The NSF - sponsored Global Oscillation Network Group (GONG) project will deploy a network of six oscillation observing stations around the world beginning in 1994. These stations will keep the Sun under surveillance 24 hours each day over a three year period. One of these stations will be located at the Learmonth Solar Observatory in Western Australia. The object of this workshop is to increase the participation of Australian scientists in helioseismology and to initiate cooperative research programs. The workshop will be divided between tutorial presentations by recognized experts and traditional research presentations. The principal topics will be the physics of solar oscillations, solar internal models, convection, dynamos, and helioseismic inversions. ***
