0407532RoseThis one-year award will support a dissertation enhancement project of Matthew Fleenor, a student in the Department of Physics and Astronomy at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. He will work with Professor Marinus van de Weygaert at the Kapteyn Astronomical Institute at the University of Gronigen and Prof. Melanie Johnston-Hollitt at Leiden Observatory, University of Leiden, both in The Netherlands. Mr. Fleenor's research will probe the dynamical and morphological characteristics of the Horologium-Reticulum Supercluster (HRS) to evaluate whether the hierarchical merging picture of structure formation accurately predicts the variety and kinematics of substructures present. Mr. Fleenor will benefit from training by experts in related fields: i) the integration of non-optical (particularly radio) observations as a means of interpreting the dynamic and kinematic state of localized regions, and ii) the comparison of the observational datasets with cosmological-scale computer simulations.

0407532ROSETHIS一年奖将支持Matthew Fleenor的论文增强项目，Matthew Fleenor是北卡罗来纳大学教堂山（Chapel Hill）物理与天文学系的学生。 他将与格罗尼根大学的卡普滕天文学院和荷兰莱顿大学莱顿天文台的梅兰妮·约翰斯顿·霍利特（Melanie Johnston-Hollitt）教授Marinus van de Weygaert教授一起工作。 Fleenor先生的研究将探讨钟reticum-reticulum Supercluster（HRS）的动力学和形态特征，以评估结构形成的层次合并图像是否准确地预测了存在的子结构的多样性和运动学。 Fleenor先生将受益于相关领域专家的培训：i）非光学（尤其是无线电）观察的整合，作为解释本地化区域的动态和运动状态的一种手段，ii）将观察数据集与宇宙学尺度计算机尺度的计算机模拟进行比较。
