The International School for Cosmic Rays Astrophysics - 19th Course on Exploring the High Energy Universe at the Ettore Majorana Center in Erice, Sicily, Italy on July 4-11,2014

该奖项将为美国研究生参加2014年7月4日至11日在意大利西西里岛埃赖斯举行的2014年国际宇宙线天体物理学校提供参与者支持。今年课程的主题是“探索高能宇宙”。讨论的主题将是新的实验、新的实验结果和对它们的新理解。这门课程将强调天体物理学的多信使方法，这是一种结合了电磁辐射观测、涉及中微子的测量以及其他高能粒子测量的跨学科努力。该学院特别关注早期职业科学家和研究生。因此，学校在这些年轻科学家的教育中非常重要，不仅因为他们听的是讲座，还因为在学校期间，他们直接与更有经验的科学家进行交流，这些科学家是讲师。此外，该学院的国际性质促进了这些年轻科学家在这一根本上是全球性的研究努力中的全球互动。

This award will provide participant support for US graduate students to participate in the 2014 International School for Cosmic Ray Astrophysics to be held on July 4-11, 2014 in Erice, Sicily, Italy. The theme of the Course this year is "Exploring the High Energy Universe." Topics of discussion will be the new experiments, new experimental results and the new understanding of them. The course will emphasize the multi-messenger approach to astrophysics, a cross-disciplinary effort that combines observations of electromagnetic radiation, measurements involving neutrinos, and measurements of other high-energy particles. The school has a particular focus on early career scientists and graduate students. Therefore, the School is important in the education of such young scientists not only because of the lectures they listen to, but also because during the School they directly communicate with the more experienced scientists who are the lecturers. In addition, the international character of the School fosters the global interaction of these young scientists in this fundamentally global research endeavor.
