Mathematical Sciences: Postdoctoral Research Fellowship

小行星9407547 数学科学博士后研究奖学金是授予最近获得数学科学博士学位的人。 这些奖项是促进国家科学努力未来活力的一种手段。 随着数学科学研究人员扩大与其他学科的互动，以及数学本身各个领域之间的相互作用的增加，博士后研究和培训的机会变得越来越重要。 奖学金的目的是让获奖者选择研究环境，将有最大的影响，他们未来的科学发展。 该奖学金旨在提供24个月的支持，分为18个学术年月和3个为期两个夏季月。 受助人可以选择（1）研究奖学金选项，允许在三年内的任何18个月的学年中提供全职支持，间隔不短于连续3个月或（2）研究指导选项，允许18个月的学年支持被视为9个月的全职支持和18个月的半职支持。 不超过两个月的夏季支持，从这个奖学金可能会收到在任何日历年。 Richard McLaughlin在普林斯顿大学获得博士学位，并将在犹他州大学的Ken Golden指导下进行研究。 该研究将在湍流传输领域进行，特别是在被动和主动标量的随机性的影响。

9407547 MCLAUGHLIN The Mathematical Sciences Postdoctoral Research Fellowships are awards to recent recipients of doctoral degrees in the mathematical sciences. These awards are a means of contributing to the future vitality of the scientific effort of the nation. As researchers in the mathematical sciences expand their interactions with other disciplines, and as the interplay increases between the various areas of mathematics itself, opportunities for postdoctoral research and training are becoming increasingly important. The fellowships are designed to permit awardees to choose research environments that will have maximal impact on their future scientific development. The fellowship is designed to provide 24 months of support divided into 18 academic-year months and 3 periods of two summer months. The recipient may choose (1) the Research Fellowship option which allows for full-time support for any 18 academic-year months in a three-year period, in interval not shorter than 3 consecutive months or (2) the Research Instructorship option which allows the 18 months of academic year support to be taken as 9 months of full-time support and 18 months of half-time support. Not more than two months of summer support from this Fellowship may be received in any calendar year. Richard McLaughlin received his doctoral degree from Princeton University, and will pursue research under the guidance of Ken Golden at the University of Utah. The research will be conducted in the area of turbulent transport, specifically on effects of randomness in passive and active scalars.
