Racial or ethnic isolation may negatively impact physics graduate students’ academic and professional experience. An interview study with 16 doctoral students who were considered to be particularly at risk of such isolation found that (i) the students interviewed are mostly not the only member of their racial or ethnic group in their programs; (ii) students have diverse perceptions of who they consider to be part of their racial or ethnic group, such that their unique perspectives need to be taken into account by programs that wish to support them; and (iii) students report negative racial experiences in their programs, such as bias, expectations of service, family and financial difficulties, and political threats. Overall, these findings present both challenges and opportunities for supporting Black and Latinx physics graduate students in ways that are meaningful to them.

黑人和拉丁裔物理学研究生之间的隔离和联系

种族或种族隔离可能会对物理研究生的学术和专业经验产生负面影响。一项针对16名博士生的访谈研究发现，这些博士特别容易面临孤立的危险：（i）访谈的学生大多不是其课程中种族或族裔群体的唯一成员；（ii）学生对他们认为自己是种族或族裔群体的一员有不同的看法，因此希望支持他们的计划需要考虑到他们独特的观点；（iii）学生在他们的课程中报告了负面的种族经历，例如偏见，对服务的期望，家庭和经济困难以及政治威胁。总体，
