Student Support to Attend International Conference on Atomic Physics (ICAP) 2008

该奖项提供资金支持学生参加2008年国际原子物理学会议，该会议将于2008年7月27日至8月1日在康涅狄格州斯托尔斯的康涅狄格大学举行。会议涉及原子物理学的核心问题，包括讨论精密测量、量子信息、超冷原子和分子、量子光学、超快现象和机械系统的量子力学方面的进展。会议的目的是汇集国际领先的科学家以及活跃或对该领域特别感兴趣的年轻研究人员和学生。会议采用邀请演讲的形式，没有平行会议和单独的海报展示会议，使会议成为一个很好的论坛，可以广泛地让学生参与最新的研究成果，并且仍然有时间让参与者之间进行互动。理论和实验的AMO程序都提供了支持。

This award provides funds to support student participation in the 2008 International Conference on Atomic Physics, being held during the week of July 27-August 1, 2008, at the University of Connecticut in Storrs, Connecticut. The conference involves a program of central issues in atomic physics, including discussions of advances in precision measurements, quantum information, ultracold atoms and molecules, quantum optics, ultrafast phenomena, and the quantum mechanics of mechanical systems. The objective of the conference is to bring together internationally leading scientists as well as young researchers and students active or specially interested in the field. The conference format of invited talks with no parallel sessions and separate sessions for poster presentations makes the meeting an excellent forum to broadly engage students in the newest research results and still allow time for interactions among the participants. Support is provided by both the theoretical and experimental AMO programs.
