18th International Conference on Recent Progress in Many-Body Theories, August 16-21, 2015

本奖项为第18届国际多体理论最新进展会议提供了部分支持。会议汇集了来自量子多体理论学科不同领域的研究人员，量子多体理论是现代理论物理学的关键组成部分。会议通过传播共同感兴趣的最新进展，促进了方法学知识和思想在不同领域之间的交流；它还突出了新领域的出现。NSF的支持将使年轻的研究人员和未被充分代表的少数群体能够参加，否则他们可能无法参加，并且也将为希望参加计划在两次会议之间进行的讲座和辅导的学生和年轻博士后提供支持。会议为学生和年轻博士后提供了重要的教育经验和交流机会。本奖项为第18届国际多体理论最新进展会议提供了部分支持。本次会议将于2015年8月16日至21日在尼亚加拉瀑布举行的2015量子流体和固体研讨会上举行。会议汇集了来自量子多体理论学科不同领域的研究人员。会议通过传播共同感兴趣的最新进展，促进了方法学知识和思想在不同领域之间的交流；它还突出了新领域的出现。涵盖的主题包括：量子流体中的多体问题、核物理、相关电子物理、相对论多体理论、冷气体和新技术。邀请的演讲者包括公认的国际专家。会议相对较小的规模提供了参与者之间更密切和更有效的互动的好处。NSF的支持将使年轻的研究人员和未被充分代表的少数群体能够参加，否则他们可能无法参加，并且也将为希望参加计划在两次会议之间进行的讲座和辅导的学生和年轻博士后提供支持。会议为学生和博士后提供了重要的教育经验和交流机会。

NONTECHNICAL SUMMARYThis award provides partial support for the 18th International Conference on Recent Progress in Many-Body Theory. The conference brings together researchers from diverse fields within the discipline of quantum many-body theory, which is a key component of modern theoretical physics. The conference facilitates the exchange of methodological knowledge and ideas between otherwise distant fields by disseminating recent advances that are of common interest; it also highlights the emergence of new fields. NSF support will enable the participation of young investigators and underrepresented minorities who otherwise might not be able to participate, and will also be available for students and young postdocs who wish to participate in lectures and tutorials planned for the intervening day between the two conferences. The conference provides an important educational experience and a networking opportunity for students and young postdocs.TECHNICAL SUMMARYThis award provides partial support for the 18th International Conference on Recent Progress in Many-Body Theory. This conference will be held back-to-back with the 2015 Symposium on Quantum Fluids and Solids at Niagara Falls on August 16-21, 2015. The conference brings together researchers from diverse fields within the discipline of quantum many-body theory. The conference facilitates the exchange of methodological knowledge and ideas between otherwise distant fields by disseminating recent advances that are of common interest; it also highlights the emergence of new fields. Topics covered include: many-body problems in quantum fluids, nuclear physics, correlated electron physics, relativistic many-body theory, cold gases, and new techniques. The invited speakers include recognized international experts. The conference's relatively small size offers the benefit of closer and more effective interactions among the participants. NSF support will enable the participation of young investigators and underrepresented minorities who otherwise might not be able to participate, and will also be available for students and young postdocs who wish to participate in lectures and tutorials planned for the intervening day between the two conferences. The conference provides an important educational experience and a networking opportunity for students and postdocs.
