US Students Participation in the 22nd Course of ISCRA; August 28 - September 5, 2020; Erice, Italy

宇宙射线天体物理学国际学校（ISCRA）是一个两年一度的暑期学校，旨在通过讲座和与粒子天体物理学专家的非正式讨论，为研究生和年轻的博士后学者提供该领域的概述。这是世界上唯一一所定期举办的粒子天体物理学暑期学校，它在培养该领域未来的领导者方面有着良好的历史。第22届ISCRA课程将于2020年8月28日至9月5日在意大利的Erice举行。会议将包括讨论新的实验、新的实验结果和对这些结果的新理解，强调天体物理学的多信使方法。第22届ISCRA的主题是“从宇宙粒子到引力波：现在和未来”，第22届ISCRA的主题是“从宇宙粒子到引力波：现在和未来”。预计讨论的主题包括中微子天体物理学、引力波、高能粒子和辐射的加速和相互作用、宇宙射线和伽马射线的测量以及未来的空间和地面实验。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

The International School of Cosmic Ray Astrophysics (ISCRA) is a biannual summer school designed to provide an overview of the field to graduate students and young postdoctoral scholars through both lectures and informal discussions with Particle Astrophysics experts. This is the only regular Particle Astrophysics summer school in the world and it has an excellent history of training future leaders in the field. The 22nd ISCRA course will take place in Erice, Italy, from the 28th of August through the 5th of September 2020. The sessions will include discussions of new experiments, new experimental results and the new understanding of those results, emphasizing the multi-messenger approach to astrophysics. This award will support the participation of US graduate students and young postdoctoral scientists.The theme of the 22nd ISCRA is "From cosmic particles to gravity waves: now and to come." Topics for discussion are expected to include neutrino astrophysics, gravitational waves, acceleration and interactions of high energy particles and radiation, measurements of cosmic rays and gamma rays, and future space- and ground-based experiments. Proceedings are published to more broadly disseminate the results.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
