Support for Young US Scientists Attending the 2008 International Accelerator School for Linear Colliders, October 2008, Chicago, IL

提案号：0820826机构：费米研究联盟，LLCNSF项目：PHY ？基本粒子加速器用户首席研究员：周伟仁。题目：支持美国青年科学家参加2008年国际直线对撞机加速器学校第一届国际直线对撞机加速器学校于2006年5月19日至27日在日本小剑台举行。第二次是2007年10月1日至10日在意大利西西里岛的Erice。两所学校都非常成功。这些学校是由国际直线对撞机全球设计工作组（ILC GDE）、国际对撞机指导委员会（ILCSC）和国际未来加速器委员会（ICFA）束流动力学小组联合组织的。这些学校得到了美国、欧洲和亚洲的主要实验室和资助机构的慷慨资助。他们为来自世界各地的年轻人（研究生、博士后和年轻研究人员）提供了学习未来高能物理项目的机会，即ILC和CLIC。人们的兴趣是巨大的。第一所学校收到了500多份申请，第二所学校收到了250份申请。这些申请者正在争夺70个名额，这些名额受到学校容量的限制。基于前两届LC学校的成功和世界加速器社区的需求，ILC GDE和ICFA决定继续举办该系列学校，并将于2008年10月19日至29日在美国伊利诺斯州芝加哥附近的橡树溪山万豪酒店举行第三届。学校有一个由ILC GDE主任Barry Barish主持的组织委员会和一个由ICFA光束动力学小组主席周伟仁主持的课程委员会。参加人数和形式将与以前的LC学校相似。该奖项将为青年科学家和学生提供部分支持。

PROPOSAL NUMBER: 0820826INSTITUTION: Fermi Research Alliance, LLCNSF PROGRAM: PHY ? ELEMENTARY PARTICLE ACCEL USERPRINCIPAL INVESTIGATOR: Chou, Weiren.TITLE: Support for Young US Scientists Attending the 2008 International Accelerator School for Linear CollidersThe first International Accelerator School for Linear Colliders was held May 19-27, 2006 in Sokendai, Japan. The second one was October 1-10, 2007 in Erice, Sicily, Italy. Both schools were very successful. These schools were jointly organized by the International Linear Collider Global Design Effort (ILC GDE), the International Collider Steering Committee (ILCSC), and the International Committee for Future Accelerators (ICFA) Beam Dynamics Panel. These schools were generously sponsored by major laboratories and funding agencies in the U.S., Europe and Asia. They gave young people (graduate students, postdoctoral fellows and young researchers) from all over the world the opportunity to learn about future high energy physics projects, namely, the ILC and CLIC. The interest was enormous. The first school received more than 500 applications and the second one about 250 applications. These applicants were competing for the 70 available spaces, which were limited by the capacity of the school. Based on the successes of the first two LC schools and demand from the world accelerator community, the ILC GDE and ICFA decided to continue the school series and have a third one in 2008 in the U.S. It will take place October 19 to 29, 2008 at the Oak Brook Hills Marriott Hotel near Chicago, Illinois. The school has an Organizing Committee chaired by Barry Barish, Director of the ILC GDE, and a Curriculum Committee chaired by Weiren Chou, Chair of the ICFA Beam Dynamics Panel. The number of participants and format will be similar to the previous LC schools. This award will provide partial support for the young scientists and students.
