U.S. Participation in the Academia Sinica-Hosted Millimeter-Wave Workshop

OISE-0929121联合大学/国家射电天文台(埃文斯，？美国参与中科院主办的毫米波研讨会？)摘要该奖项资助国家射电天文台支持14名美国学生和早期职业研究人员参加？毫米和亚毫米天文学的高角分辨率？会议将于2009年6月在台湾台北举行。这次会议由中科院天文和天体物理研究所(ASIAA)所长何保禄博士领导，将为促进美国科学家和中研院工作人员在毫米波天文学方面的交流和合作提供场所，特别是即将投入使用的阿塔卡马大型毫米波阵列(ALMA)。6月的会议旨在讨论与毫米波天文学有关的一系列科学和技术主题，并着眼于与ASIAA合作开展的关键科学研究。具体专题包括太阳系、银河系低质量和高质量恒星的形成、流出/喷流、原行星盘/碎片盘、演化恒星、附近星系、银河系中心、活动星系核和超发光星系、高红移星系、天体化学和仪器。如此丰富的当代科学主题讨论为探索新思想和科学合作提供了独特的机会。指导毫米波天文学学生和早期职业研究人员的具体战略，以及实施这些战略的时间表，将是总结讨论的主要部分。

OISE-0929121 Associated Universities, Inc./National Radio Astronomy Observatory (Evans, ?U.S. Participation in Academia Sinica-Hosted Millimeter-wave Workshop?)ABSTRACT This award funds the National Radio Astronomy Observatory (NRAO) to support the participation of fourteen U.S. students and early-career researchers at the ?Millimeter and Sub-millimeter Astronomy at High Angular Resolution? meeting, to be held in June 2009 in Taipei, Taiwan. This meeting, organized under the leadership of Dr. Paul Ho, Director, Academia Sinica Institute of Astronomy and Astrophysics (ASIAA), will provide a venue for fostering communication and collaboration between U.S. scientists and Academia Sinica staff in millimeter-wave astronomy and, in particular, for the soon-to-be commissioned Atacama Large Millimeter Array (ALMA).The June meeting aims to cover a range of scientific and technical topics related to millimeter-wave astronomy, with an eye towards key science to be done with ALMA, on which ASIAA is a partner. Specific topics to be covered include the solar system, galactic low-mass and high-mass star formation, outflows/Jets, proto-planetary disks/debris disks, evolved stars, nearby galaxies, galactic center, AGNs and ultra luminous galaxies, high-redshift galaxies, astrochemistry, and instrumentation. Such a rich discussion of contemporary scientific topics provides a unique opportunity for the exploration of new ideas and scientific collaborations. Concrete strategies for mentoring students and early career researchers in millimeter-wave astronomy, and timescales for the implementation of these strategies will be a major part of the concluding discussions.
