Fifteenth Extotic Beam Summer School

该奖项支持学生参加2016年7月17日至24日在国家超导回旋加速器实验室举办的第十五届奇异光束(EBSS)物理暑期班。该学院是为研究生、积极参与研究和博士后研究的大四本科生(在获得学位后2年内)而设计的。学校将由上午的讲座和下午的实践活动组成。学生们还将有机会展示他们的研究成果。暑期班的目的是培养下一代科学家，当稀有同位素束设施(FRIB)和其他现有的稀有同位素设施上线时，他们将推动这项研究。在未来的几年里，低能核物理的实质性进展将对社会产生广泛的影响，从我们对元素起源的理解到加强国家安全。这些暑期班以前的课程有代表不足的少数族裔的广泛参与，第14届EBSS的参与者略高于40%。第十五届EBSS的组织者将继续使用公认的最佳做法，以增加多样性，并举办包容性暑期学校。

This award provides support for students to participate in the Fifteenth Summer School on Exotic Beam (EBSS) Physics at the National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory, July 17 - 24, 2016. The school is designed for graduate students, senior undergraduate students who are actively involved in research and postdocs (within 2 years of their degree). The school will consist of morning lectures and hands-on activities in the afternoons. Students will also have an opportunity to present their research. The aim of the summer school is to educate the next generation of scientists that will drive the research at the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB) when it comes online and other existing rare isotope facilities. In years to come, substantial progress in low-energy nuclear physics will have a broad impact on society, ranging from our understanding of the origin of the elements to the enhancement of national security.Previous sessions of these summer schools have had broad participation of under-represented minorities, with slightly more than 40% of the participants of the Fourteenth EBSS being female. The organizers of the Fifteenth EBSS will continue the use of accepted best practices to increase diversity and have an inclusive summer school.
