Institute of Particle Physics

这是一个支持粒子物理研究所(IPP)项目的资金申请，IPP是一个跨加拿大的组织，旨在促进粒子物理研究和先进教育的卓越，协调国内和国际粒子物理研究方面的合作，是加拿大各地粒子物理活动的焦点，也是世界各地实验室和大学研究合作伙伴的联系人。NSERC MRS Grant将主要用于支付加拿大各地大学接待的八名IPP研究科学家的工资，他们为各种粒子物理项目提供至关重要的高技能领导。IPP研究科学家对于使任何加拿大大学的教职员工、学生和博士后能够有效地利用和科学地利用世界上最具生产力和最高影响力的粒子物理研究设施至关重要。这项拨款申请还为IPP寻求资金，以支持：-加拿大主办的研讨会、学校和会议，旨在促进HQP的出席；-加拿大本科生在全国竞赛中被选中参加CERN暑期学生计划；-研究生和博士后研究员参与一项促进理论粒子物理领域新的国际合作的计划；IPP是一家非营利性公司，成立于1971年，由机构成员所有，由16个机构成员和197个个人成员运营，以促进加拿大的粒子物理研究。机构成员任命一个董事会，该委员会对研究所的行动负有法律责任。个人成员选举一个由六名成员组成的科学理事会，负责该研究所的科学计划和运作。议会议员的任期为三年，交错任期，因此每年有两名议会议员下台，两名议员进入议会。IPP理事会由IPP主任担任主席，由董事会任命，并由个别成员批准，任期五年。议会政策方案成员每年举行会议，为研究所的运作提供直接和通过其委员的间接意见。IPP资源由理事会以明确和透明的方式分配，并以各种方式传达给成员，包括通过公布的会议纪要。

This is a request for funds to support programs of the Institute of Particle Physics (IPP), a trans-Canadian organization that promotes excellence in particle physics research and advanced education, coordinates national and international collaborations in particle physics research, and that serves as the focal point for particle physics activities across Canada and a point of contact for research partners in laboratories and universities around the world.The NSERC MRS grant will primarily be used for the salary of the eight IPP Research Scientists hosted at universities across Canada who provide vital, highly skilled leadership for a wide variety of particle physics projects. The IPP Research Scientists are critical for enabling the faculty, students and postdocs at any Canadian university to effectively access and scientifically exploit the most productive and highest impact particle physics research facilities in the world.This grant request also seeks funds for IPP to support:- Canadian-hosted workshops, schools and conferences intended to facilitate attendance by HQP;- Canadian undergraduate students selected in a national competition to participate in the CERN Summer Student Programme;- Graduate students and postdoctoral fellows involved in a program to promote novel international collaborations in theoretical particle physics; and- Travel for IPP Council and Trustees meetings and IPP participation in national and international planning meetings and reviewsThe IPP is a non-profit corporation founded in 1971 that is owned by the Institutional Members and operated by the 16 Institutional and 197 Individual Members for the benefit of particle physics research in Canada. The Institutional Members appoint a Board of Trustees, which has the legal responsibility for the actions of the Institute. The Individual Members elect a six-member Scientific Council, which is responsible for the scientific program and the operation of the Institute. IPP Councillors are elected for three year staggered terms so that two IPP Councillors come off and two come on Council each year. The IPP Council is chaired by the Director of IPP, who is appointed by the Board of Trustees and ratified by the Individual Members for a five year term. The IPP Members meet annually and provide both direct and, through their Councillors, indirect input into the operations of the Institute. IPP resources are allocated by Council in a clear and transparent manner and communicated to the membership in various ways, including via published meeting minutes.
