Накратко на български

Астрофизиката и астрочастичната физика изследват обекти във Вселената, като например звездите и галактиките. Обучението на млади специалисти в тези области помага за развитието на научните познания за космоса.

Final Activity Report Summary - MC-IMPRS-ASTRO (Marie-Curie Training Site at the IMPRS in Astrophysics)

This project provided partial support for students at the ‘International Max Planck Research School in Astrophysics’ (IMPRS) at the Ludwig Maximilian’s University of Munich. Founded in 2000 and located on the research campus in Garching near Munich, this doctoral school links six institutions with world-class research programs in astrophysics and astroparticle physics. Students completed a three-year PhD with lectures, seminars and assessment coordinated and monitored by the IMPRS, but with research carried out in their individual institutes. The school was populated by between 70 and 80 students throughout the four years of this EU project, thus being the largest research school in astrophysics in Europe. The project financed 65 different students, among which 34 were female, for a total of 435 person months. Out of these students 23 had already graduated with a PhD by the time of the project completion and almost all were still active in astrophysical research in their home countries and elsewhere.

Цел на проекта

Founded in 2000 on an initiative from the Max-Planck Society, the International Max Planck Research School (IMPRS) in Astrophysics links six institutions in the Munich-Arching area with world-class research programmes in astronomy, astrophysics or astroparticle physics. This IMPRS provide a structured, coherent, interdisciplinary and fully international training programme, which spans 3 years and leads to a PhD from one of the two Munich universities. All lectures and group training sessions are in English. Research training is fully integrated within individual research groups, but is uniformly monitored and assessed throughout the school. Three admissions rounds have garnered 223 applications from 45 different countries; 51 students have been admitted (23 of them female). The first 20 PhD's will graduate during 2004. The Max-Planck Institute submits this proposal for Astrophysics on behalf of the five German partners in this IMPRS. We request EC support for 240 person-months of training, just half of the 10 studentships already committed to the school by the Max-Planck Society. If funded, 10% of student support within the school will come from the EC, 20% from central Max-Planck funds, and 70% from the internal budgets of the individual partner institutes. Currently, only 15% of the student body is German while more than half is non-German citizens of the EU or Associated States. Wide-ranging publicity, worldwide recruitment and high visibility science have resulted in very broad name recognition for this IMPRS among the international astronomical community. Most of the stated goals for a Marie Curie Early Stage Training site have already been reached. Community support will ensure that this exemplary graduate school continues to train European astrophysicists at the heart of European astronomy.
