说明： <br>
其实我一直觉得别人的PS只是一个参考作用，ps的个人风格还是很重要，原来也说过 <br>
申请材料作为一个整体，我觉得最好不要过于重复，所以当时我写的时候，基本上没有 <br>
提自己的成绩，至于研究经验，我实在也是写不出什么。 <br>
<br>
还有就是PS里不要用太多太夸张的词，语气活泼些也可以，但是不要失了稳重 <br>

Personal Statement <br>
By meteo <br>
<br>
In a humorous word, the relation between theoretical physics and applied phy <br>
sics is somewhat like the relation between dating and marriage. Theoretical <br>
physics is exciting and applied physics is practical but the succeed of the <br>
latter needs a smart sense of the former one. What I gained in PKU is just b <br>
oth the smart sense and the practical experience on space plasma physics. So <br>
what I want in your Plasma Physics Program is just a successful marriage wi <br>
th plasma physics. <br>
<br>
? Why did I choose Physics? <br>
Once as a junior middle school student, I was surprised to learn that the fa <br>
mous special theory of relativity is derived from merely two principles. The <br>
simple forms of the two principles reminded me of the simplicity of the pro <br>
cess of the derivation. So I challenged myself with the problem of finding o <br>
ut the process. With some books of the Michelson-Morley experiment borrowed <br>
from the city library, some knowledge of calculus and some ideal experiments <br>
, I finally proved the equation E=M*C*C-M0*C*C. In that year, I was fifteen <br>
years old. <br>
<br>
That was my first research experience in my life. Although the answer of tha <br>
t problem is in many books, it was gotten independently by myself. After tha <br>
t experience, whenever I turned to physics, I said: “I love this game!” I <br>
also saw the limit of my knowledge of mathematics from that experience. And <br>
I found it wonderful to read books by myself and to think it over in my own <br>
way. So I learned Methods of Mathematical Physics by myself after I came int <br>
o senior middle school. All this made me the first winner of the Chinese Phy <br>
sics Olympic Competition in the history of our hometown. As a result, I was <br>
admitted into Peking University waived of the entrance examination (a test l <br>
ike SAT in China) and chose Space Physics as the starting of my research car <br>
eer. <br>
<br>
? What have I learned in Peking University? <br>
<br>
The two most important things I prepared in PKU for my future research work <br>
are two modes of thinking. One is to think in a physical way. The other is t <br>
o think from different perspective. In addition to that, I gained a lot of p <br>
ractical technology and a lot of practical experience to fulfil my objective <br>
. <br>
<br>
My strong foundation of mathematics and physics assured the freedom of my ow <br>
n study plan in such a good school as Peking University. I stepped up in my <br>
own way for researching of space plasma physics with many books in physics a <br>
nd mathematics. The three that made the deepest impact on me were: Different <br>
ial Forms in Mathematical Physics by C. Von Westenholz, Principles of Plasma <br>
Physics by Nicholas A. Krall & Alvin W. Trivelpiece and Physical Kinetics b <br>
y E. M. Lifshitz & L. P. Pitaevskii. <br>
<br>
The second and third book gave me a basic but systematic map of plasma physi <br>
cs. The first one, which I like the most among the three books, gave me the <br>
ability to link knowledge of contemporary mathematics with physics. I learne <br>
d that physics hides the relations behind the letters and equations and math <br>
ematics helps me to separate and classify relations by different kinds of ma <br>
thematics structure. It’s an extremely charming experience for me to keep a <br>
nother eye on a routine relation or put the question in a broader field. For <br>
a short instance, when I learned plasma physics, I compared the anisotropis <br>
m of plasma with that of crystal in a physical image. I found the reason of <br>
the former is a classical one but the latter is not of the same kind. In pla <br>
sma, the anisotropism comes from the magnetic field. But in crystal, the ani <br>
sotropism comes from the particles in it and can be described as a kind of m <br>
acroscopical spatial quantum effect. That explains the phenomenon of multi-a <br>
xis in crystal and implies to me that if in some condition the quantum effec <br>
t in plasma can’t be neglected, there must be some similar interesting effe <br>
ct. That is just an idea many of which piled up in my mind during my life at <br>
PKU—physical eye on Laplace transform, geometrical eye on determinant, and <br>
so on. <br>
<br>
Success in researching is not made merely by a mind full of “another”. Wit <br>
hout being realized, an idea is only an idea. In my life in PKU, I trained m <br>
yself with many practical technique and painstaking work. As a former first- <br>
class honor winner of competition of computer programming in our province in <br>
middle school, I greatly strengthened my programming skill and debugging sk <br>
ill in PKU. I also benefit greatly from my social commitment. All these can <br>
be seen on my Résumé. They ensured my outstanding academy record and allow <br>
ed me to win many honors. <br>
<br>
Moreover, I took part in a lot of research work. For my excellent performanc <br>
e, I was recommended to a joint education program between our department and <br>
. <br>
. Some research (introduction briefly) <br>
. <br>
. <br>
All these experience have worked greatly to improve my practical experien <br>
ce. <br>
<br>
? What do I want in Princeton University? <br>
My wide research in space physics strongly focused my attention to theoretic <br>
al plasma physics. I learned from the information of PPPL that Princeton Uni <br>
versity possessed an excellent research and education system for both theore <br>
tical and experimental plasma physics. The courses of your program and resea <br>
rch projects especially of theoretical plasma physics greatly attract me at <br>
first glance. For example the course Irreversible Processes in Plasmas will <br>
greatly help solving the problem of heating of solar wind, which has been a <br>
hot topic in space physics. As known to me, researching of the nonlinear phe <br>
nomena is very hot in the theoretical plasma physics researching. Succeed in <br>
that field need a strong background both in analytic area and in computatio <br>
nal area. The course list in your program showed the emphasizing on that. Th <br>
at’s just the most important reason for my applying for your program. With <br>
the strict training in your program, the physical sense I’ve gotten and the <br>
background in space plasma physics, I think my researching in the field of <br>
theoretical plasma physics will sure be promising. <br>
