Collaborative Proposals: Institute for Theoretical, Atomic, Molecular and Optical Physics

智力优势：哈佛-史密森天体物理中心的理论原子、分子和光学物理研究所（ITAMP）是理论原子分子和光学物理的用户机构。其核心项目是博士后和访问学者计划，研讨会和专题小组和演讲者系列。AMO理论在激发和解释AMO和凝聚态物理学、天体物理学、化学和量子光学的先锋实验发展方面发挥了至关重要的作用。ITAMP在培训和指导博士后研究员方面享有盛誉，这些研究员后来在包括哈佛和麻省理工学院在内的一流大学以及洛斯阿拉莫斯和橡树岭等国家实验室担任教职。更广泛的影响：ITAMP使尽可能多的受众了解其活动。ITAMP网站公布了讲习班、参观者、座谈会、方案信息和ITAMP通讯的时间表。 讲习班进行网播，并存档用于广泛的教育目的。对青年科学家进行AMO物理理论方面的教育和培训对ITAMP至关重要。博士后组织午餐讨论，并与高素质的国际科学家互动。自2007年以来，四名女博士后研究员接受了美国大学的助理教授职位，包括麻省理工学院的一个一个新的学生培训和教育推广计划是AMO物理研究生冬季学校，与B2研究所合作，拥有一个全明星的讲师名册。

Intellectual Merits: The Institute for Theoretical Atomic, Molecular and Optical Physics (ITAMP) at the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics is a user facility for theoretical atomic molecular and optical (AMO) Physics. Its core programs are the postdoctoral and the visiting scholars programs, workshops and topical groups and speaker series. AMO theory has played a vital role in motivating and explaining avant-garde experimental developments in AMO and condensed matter physics, astrophysics, chemistry and quantum optics. ITAMP has a notable reputation for training and mentoring postdoctoral fellows, who go on to occupy faculty and staff positions at leading universities, including Harvard and MIT, and national laboratories, such as Los Alamos, and Oak Ridge. Broader Impacts: ITAMP makes its activities accessible to as large an audience as possible. The ITAMP website posts schedules of workshops, visitors, colloquia, information about programs and the ITAMP newsletter. The workshops are webcast and are archived for broad educational purposes. The education and training of young scientists in AMO physics theory is of primary importance to ITAMP. Postdocs organize luncheon discussions, and interact with high-caliber international scientists. Since 2007, four female postdoctoral fellows accepted assistant professor offers at colleges in the U.S., including one at MIT. A new student training and educational outreach initiative is the AMO Physics Graduate Winter School, in cooperation with the B2 Institute, featuring an all-star roster of lecturers.
