The Physics and Applications of High Brightness Beams

该奖项将支持学生参加国际未来加速器委员会批准的加速器科学初级研讨会之一--将于2016年3月28日至4月1日在古巴哈瓦那举行的高亮度光束物理和应用研讨会。研讨会将维持并进一步完善会议之前的核心要旨：审查高亮度光束物理和技术的最新水平，因为它应用于先进的加速器和光源。讲习班地点的选择表明，将继续致力于扩大范围，让更多的参与者参加，包括发展中国家的科学家。讲习班的选址预计还将有助于发起一项新的倡议，旨在介绍加勒比盆地光源基础设施的开端。研讨会得到了联合国教科文组织的支持，预计将有来自美国、古巴、拉丁美洲、亚洲和欧洲的广泛参与者参加。该奖项将用于为参加研讨会的美国学生提供部分旅行支持。获得旅行支助的人员将在研讨会上发言。该奖项将为18名美国学生的入学提供便利。研讨会将是青年科学家与更有经验的研究人员及其在更广泛的国际科学界的同事互动的绝佳机会。该奖项由美国国家科学基金会物理部和国际科学与工程办公室共同赞助。

This award will provide support for students to participate in one of the primary workshops on accelerator science endorsed by the International Committee for Future Accelerators, "The Physics and Applications of High Brightness Beams" to be held in Havana, Cuba, on March 28 - April 1, 2016. The workshop will maintain and further refine the previous central thrusts of the meeting: to examine the state-of-the-art in high brightness beam physics and technology as it is applied in advanced accelerators and light sources. The choice of the location of the workshop indicates a continuing commitment to outreach to include a wider range of participants, including scientists from developing countries. The location of the workshop is also expected to help launch a new initiative that seeks to introduce the beginnings of light source infrastructure in the Caribbean basin. The workshop has obtained the endorsement of UNESCO and a broad spectrum of participants from the United States, Cuba, Latin America, Asia, and Europe is expected.The award will be used to provide partial travel support for US students to attend the workshop. The recipients of the travel support will be making presentations at the workshop. Attendance of 18 US students will be facilitated by the funds provided by this award. The workshop will be an excellent opportunity for young scientists to interact with more experienced researchers and their colleagues in the broader international scientific community. This award is co-sponsored by the NSF's Physics Division and the Office of International Science and Engineering.
