Student Travel for Numerical Relativity and Data Analysis 2008 Conference

该奖项支持学生参加2008年8月11日至14日在锡拉丘兹大学举行的数值相对论和数据分析会议（NRDA 2008）。2008年NRDA会议的重点将是在地面引力波探测器中由致密物体（黑洞和中子星）组成的双星的引力波科学。将涵盖的主题包括：黑洞模拟，从爆发、紧致双星和环衰中搜索引力波，中子星-黑洞和双中子星双星的模拟，探测和参数估计中的误差、校准和精度，后牛顿理论与数值相对论结果的比较，以及数值注入分析（NINJA）项目的现状总结。

This award supports student travel to the Numerical Relativity and Data Analysis Conference (NRDA 2008) held at Syracuse University, August 11 - 14, 2008. The focus of the NRDA 2008 conference will be gravitational-wave science of binaries consisting of compact objects (black holes and neutron stars) in ground-based gravitational wave detectors. Topics that will be covered include: black hole simulations, searches for gravitational waves from bursts, compact binaries and ringdowns, simulations of neutron star-black hole and double neutron star binaries, errors, calibration and accuracies in detection and parameter estimation, comparison of post-Newtonian theory with results from results from numerical relativity and a summary of the status of the Numerical INJection Analysis (NINJA) project.
