This award will provide support for US students to participate in the primary annual international conference on accelerator science and its applications, the 9th International Particle Accelerator Conference (IPAC`18) to be held in Vancouver, Canada on April 29 - May 4, 2018. The IPACs are an annual series of conferences that rotate between the Americas, Europe, and Asia to highlight the science and engineering of major accelerator facilities, provide scientists with a forum for presenting results from research conducted using accelerators, and serve as a venue for describing new applications of accelerators. Accelerators and accelerator-driven light sources are burgeoning worldwide, offering new prospects not only for fundamental discovery science, but for medicine, biology, energy, environment, national security, and industry. This award will give many students the first opportunity of their scientific careers to be exposed to the breadth of this growing field of basic and applied research.The award will be used to provide partial travel support for US students to attend the conference. The recipients of the travel support will be making presentations at the conference and will assist in conducting the conference. Attendance of 10 US students will be facilitated by the funds provided by this award. The conference will be an excellent opportunity for early career scientists to interact with more experienced researchers and their colleagues in the broader international scientific community.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.

该奖项将支持美国学生参加加速器科学及其应用的主要年度国际会议，即将于2018年4月29日至5月4日在加拿大温哥华举行的第九届国际粒子加速器会议（IPAC`18）。 IPAC 是一年一度的系列会议，在美洲、欧洲和亚洲之间轮流举行，旨在突出主要加速器设施的科学和工程，为科学家提供一个展示使用加速器进行的研究结果的论坛，并作为描述加速器新应用的场所。 加速器和加速器驱动的光源在全球范围内蓬勃发展，不仅为基础发现科学，而且为医学、生物学、能源、环境、国家安全和工业提供了新的前景。 该奖项将为许多学生提供其科学生涯中第一次接触这一不断发展的基础和应用研究领域的机会。该奖项将用于为美国学生参加会议提供部分旅行支持。差旅资助的接受者将在会议上发表演讲并协助会议的召开。该奖项提供的资金将帮助 10 名美国学生参加。这次会议将为职业生涯早期的科学家提供一个绝佳的机会，让他们与更广泛的国际科学界中更有经验的研究人员及其同事进行互动。该奖项反映了 NSF 的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响进行评估，被认为值得支持审查标准。
