Partial Organizational Support for the 3rd Summer Institute on Complex Plasmas. conference to be held July 30th - Aug 8, 2012 at Seton Hall in New Jersey.

这项资助将为美国博士后、研究生和高级本科生参加将于2012年7月30日至8月8日在新泽西州西顿霍尔大学举行的第三届复杂等离子体研究生暑期学院国际教育研讨会提供部分支持。这个暑期学校的项目目标是教育传播这个新领域的当前知识，推进当前的科学挑战，并促进复杂等离子体提供的潜在技术机会。第三届复杂等离子体研究生暑期研究所将重点研究尘埃和强耦合等离子体、反应等离子体、微等离子体、量子等离子体和与表面接触的等离子体。暑期学校将提供广泛而严谨的课程，通过吸引大量年轻的美国研究人员，使他们在这个新兴领域进一步发展，因为他们将面临科学挑战和技术机会，在此基础上他们可以建立成功的学术或工业生涯。该项目的另一个好处是，对于小型高科技初创公司来说，复杂的等离子体应用似乎是一个潜在的非常肥沃的领域，这些公司将把这一主题视为新等离子体技术市场实现的有利创新来源。

This grant will provides partial support for American postdoctoral, graduate, and advanced undergraduate students to participate in the third Graduate Summer Institute on Complex Plasmas, an international educational workshop which will be held from July 30th to August 8th, 2012 at Seton Hall University in South Orange, New Jersey. The project objective of this summer school is the educational dissemination of the current knowledge of this new field, the advancement of the current scientific challenges, and the promotion of the potential technological opportunities afforded by complex plasmas. The third Graduate Summer Institute on Complex Plasmas will focus on dusty and strongly coupled plasmas, reactive plasmas, microplasmas, quantum plasmas, and plasmas in contact with surfaces. The summer school will provide a broad overview yet rigorous curriculum that will lead to further advancement in this emerging field by attracting young American researchers in significant numbers since they will encounter scientific challenges as well as technological opportunities upon which they can build successful academic or industrial careers. A further benefit of this program is that complex plasma applications appear to be a potentially very fertile field for small, high-tech start-up companies which will perceive this subject as a favorable innovation source for marketplace realization of new plasma technologies.
