Artem Alikhanyan National Laboratory
*Yerevan State University Students, Working on PhD Theses at the Cosmic
Ray Division of Artem Alikhanyan National Laboratory, Awarded Kirakos
Vaporciyan Scholarship.*
Hasmik Rostomyan and Hripsime Lazarian, final-year PhD students at the
Cosmic Ray Division (CRD) of the Artem Alikhanyan National Laboratory
(formerly Yerevan Physics Institute), are the recipients of the Kirakos
Vaporciyan Scholarship for the 2012-2013 academic year. Their award was
granted on December 14, 2012
Kirakos Vaporciyan, the late husband of Mrs. Sandi Vaporciyan and the
brother of Mr. Harutyun Vaporciyan, strongly believed that supporting
education and world-class science in Armenia is of critical importance
to Armenia's future.He was an unwavering supporter of the Cosmic Ray
Division and made several personal pilgrimages to CRD's high-altitude
research stations on Mt. Aragats.His legacy includes the support of the
brightest students at the Cosmic Ray Division and a very important
project allowing the Cosmic Ray Division to analyze, display, and share
its state of the art research and data with the rest of the world's
scientific community. In his honor, CRD has named this project the
Vaporciyan Maltivariate Analysis and Visualization (VMAV) platform. When
this project is completed next year, it will break new ground in
web-based scientific "ecosystems".
Hasmig Rostomyan and Hripsime Lazarian are currently two of the six
bright PhD students at the CRD.Hasmig and Hripsime are in their final
year of studies and are working hard on their experiments and data
analysis to write their PhD theses by the summer of 2013. As is the
tradition at the Cosmic Ray Division, their theses defense will be
attended and judged by top cosmic ray scientists from around the
world.Naturally, they are taking their work very seriously and aim to
impress the judges and make proud their advisor, Prof. Ashot
Chilingarian, and the Vaporciyan family.
Hasmik, Hripsime, and Prof. Chilingarian are grateful to the Vaporciyan
family for diligently carrying out the wishes of Mr. Kirakos Vaporciyan
and for their own generous support of the CRD and its students year
after year, and also to the Armenian General Benevolent Union for
managing the Kirakos Vaporciyan Scholarship fund for CRD's students.
Mr. Kirakos Vaporciyan was a member of the greater Detroit Armenian
community and the Armenian Engineers and Scientists of America --
Michigan Section.
