Travel Grants for Graduate DPF Students to Attend the APS Meeting, Dallas, TX; April 20-25, 2006

一般APS会议，正在举行的2006年4月20日至25日在达拉斯，提供研究生的工作是由粒子和场（DPF）的司代表一个独特的机会，扩大他们的专业领域以外的物理视野。除了有机会向广大物理学家展示他们的工作外，它还为他们提供了探索物理学新领域的可能性，特别是那些现在触及粒子物理学边界的领域，如天体物理学，核物理学和计算物理学。对于那些在他们的实验或理论研究先进，它提供了机会，使接触有用，以确保他们的下一个位置，并与来自全国各地的同行互动。 在2006年4月的APS会议上，学生将能够对天体物理学、核物理学、粒子与场、束流物理学、等离子体物理学、计算物理学等学科所代表的物理学进行采样。此外，他们将能够参与教育，物理与社会，国际事务，物理学史和研究生事务论坛以及众多专题小组的活动。 青年粒子物理学家组织（Young Particle Physicists，简称YPP）正在讨论青年物理学家特别感兴趣的问题，该组织通常出席APS会议。由粒子和场分部（DPF）主席任命的一个委员会将选择大约30名学生（实验和理论）。旅费赠款的数额为300美元，用于出席会议和介绍成果的人。这些资金将通过哥伦比亚大学进行管理。

The general APS meeting, being held on April 20-25, 2006 in Dallas, offers graduate students whose work is represented by the Division of Particles and Fields (DPF) a unique opportunity to expand their physics horizons beyond their areas of specialization. Besides the opportunity to present their work to a broad audience of physicists, it also offers them the possibility to explore new areas of physics, particularly those that now touch the boundaries of particle physics such as astrophysics, nuclear physics and computational physics. For those that are advanced in their experimental or theoretical research it affords the opportunity to make contacts useful in securing their next positions, and to interact with their peers from across the country. At the April 2006 APS meeting, students will be able to sample physics represented by the divisions of Astrophysics, Nuclear Physics, Particles and Fields, Physics of Beams, Plasma Physics, Computational Physics. In addition they will be able to partake in the activities in the Forums on Education, Physics and Society, International Affairs, the History of Physics and Graduate Student Affairs, as well as those of numerous topical groups. Issues of particular interest to young physicists are being addressed by the YPP organization (Young Particle Physicists), which is usually represented at the APS meeting. A committee appointed by the chair of the Division of Particles and Fields (DPF) will make selection of about 30 students (in both experiment and theory). The size of the travel grants will be $300 for those attending and presenting results. The funds will be administered through Columbia University.
