This award provides support for students and postdoctoral researchers who will attend the 2012 and 2013 annual CTEQ Summer Schools. The CTEQ Collaboration is an informal group of 32 experimental and theoretical high-energy physicists from eighteen universities and five national labs who are engaged in a program to advance research in and understanding of quantum chromodynamics (QCD) --- the theory underlying the strong interaction. QCD and its study at high energies is increasingly shared by both elementary particle and nuclear physics. The annual Summer Schools organized by the CTEQ Collaboration are large meetings whose goal is to bring participants up to speed on recent developments regarding strong-interaction physics through lectures and other formal presentations. These annual events typically cover topics that strike a balance between the underlying physics and practical applications in current experiments. Organizers also ensure that junior physicists in attendance also have the opportunity to interact closely with the senior physicists about their research. These meetings have significant broader impacts. Attendance by junior physicists at these meetings enhances their education and promotes their research. It permits face-to-face interactions with those giving presentations, thereby fostering interactions between physicists at different stages in their careers. It also allows all to network in an informal setting, and enables them to share ideas and establish personal contacts. These meetings also promote interactions between theorists and experiments, and help to develop a badly-needed intellectual infrastructure for future QCD-related research.

该奖项为将参加2012年和2013年年度CTEQ暑期学校的学生和博士后研究人员提供支持。 CTEQ合作是一个非正式小组，由32个实验性和理论高能物理学家和来自十八所大学和五个国家实验室的实验性高能物理学家组成，他们正在从事一项计划，以提高对量子染色体动力学（QCD）的研究和理解 - 这是基于强烈互动的理论。 QCD及其在高能量上的研究越来越多地由基础粒子和核物理学共享。 由CTEQ合作组织的年度暑期学校是大型会议，其目标是通过讲座和其他正式演讲使参与者加快有关强度相互作用物理的最新发展。这些年度事件通常涵盖主题，这些主题在当前实验中的基础物理学和实际应用之间取得了平衡。 组织者还确保参加会议的初级物理学家也有机会与高级物理学家有关研究的研究。 这些会议具有更广泛的影响。 初级物理学家参加这些会议会增强他们的教育并促进他们的研究。 它允许与演讲的人进行面对面的互动，从而促进了职业不同阶段的物理学家之间的互动。 它还允许所有人在非正式的环境中进行联网，并使他们能够分享想法并建立个人联系。 这些会议还促进了理论家与实验之间的互动，并有助于开发急需的智力基础设施，以进行未来的QCD相关研究。
