Abstract

The goal of the current proposal is to obtain partial support for an upcoming symposium planned for the Fall 2011 American Chemical Society national meeting. The symposium is designed to honor the deceased senior physical chemist and Department of Energy Principle Investigator, Professor Paul Barbara. The primary use of support from DOE’s Basic Energy Sciences division would be to fund registration for postdoctoral and junior scientists, as well as registration and travel support for principle investigators from Primarily Undergraduate Institutions (PUIs). Professor Barbara was particularly adept at mentoring postdoctoral scholars in their transition to independent researchers. DOE support would help to promote the participation of these early career scientists in this symposium. Professor Barbara undertook many projects of considerable importance to the Nation’s energy program; it is hoped that the symposium, beyond honoring him, will also provide an opportunity to discuss the best ways to move forward the unfinished science he initiated with his collaborators.

The 2011 Dynamics of Molecular Collisions Conference

Other Nesbitt, David

The Dynamics of Molecular Collisions Conference focuses on all aspects of molecular collisions--experimental & theoretical studies of elastic, inelastic, & reactive encounters involving atoms, molecules, ions, clusters, & surfaces--as well as half collisions--photodissociation, photo-induced reaction, & photodesorption. The scientific program for the meeting in 2011 included exciting advances in both the core & multidisciplinary forefronts of the study of molecular collision processes. Following the format of the 2009 meeting, we also invited sessions in special topics that involve interfacial dynamics, novel emerging spectroscopies, chemical dynamics in atmospheric, combustion & interstellar environments, as well as a session devoted to theoretical &more »« less

SUPPORT FOR HU CFRT SUMMER HIGH SCHOOL FUSION WORKSHOP

Technical Report Punjabi, Alkesh

Nine summer fusion science research workshops for minority and female high school students were conducted at the Hampton University Center for Fusion Research and Training from 1996 to 2005. Each workshop was of the duration of eight weeks. In all 35 high school students were mentored. The students presented 28 contributed papers at the annual meetings of the American Physical Society Division of Plasma Physics. These contributed papers were very well received by the plasma physics and fusion science research community. The students won a number of prestigious local, state, and national honors, awards, prizes, and scholarships. The notable amongmore »« less

Developing an Undergraduate Research Laboratory for Experimental Physical Chemistry [Book Chapter]

Other

Embarking on a faculty career in physical chemistry at a primarily undergraduate institution (PUI) is exciting, but also overwhelming. Becoming both an effective teacher and a productive researcher requires a good plan, hard work and support from others who understand what it takes to be successful. The phrase, “building a laboratory,” calls to mind the physical construction of a research instrument, but beginning a career at a PUI involves much more than assembling equipment. Funding for the lab must be secured, students must be recruited and mentored, and the lab must be overseen to keep things running on a dailymore »« less

Gender Equity in Materials Science and Engineering

Other Rockett, Angus

At the request of the University Materials Council, a national workshop was convened to examine 'Gender Equity Issues in Materials Science and Engineering.' The workshop considered causes of the historic underrepresentation of women in materials science and engineering (MSE), with a goal of developing strategies to increase the gender diversity of the discipline in universities and national laboratories. Specific workshop objectives were to examine efforts to level the playing field, understand implicit biases, develop methods to minimize bias in all aspects of training and employment, and create the means to implement a broadly inclusive, family-friendly work environment in MSE departments.more »« less

The Division of Nuclear Chemistry and Technology (NUCL) of the American Chemistry Society (ACS) is sponsoring a symposium entitled "New Directions in Isotope Production, Nuclear Forensics and Radiochemistry Supported by the DOE" at the 240th ACS National Meeting in Boston, MA 22-26 August 2010. Radiochemistry and nuclear science is a critical area of research and funding for which the DOE has provided support over the years. Radiochemistry is undergoing a renaissance in interdisciplinary areas including medicine, materials, nanotechnology, nuclear forensics and energy. For example, interest in nuclear energy is growing in response to global warming. The field of nuclear forensicsmore »« less
