Fourth International Symposium on Accelerator Mass Spectrometry to be held on April 27-30, 1987 at Niagara- on-the Lake, Ontario, Canada

本提案要求部分支持，以支付组织第四届质谱国际研讨会的费用。研讨会将由罗彻斯特大学主办，并将以贡献和邀请的口头报告和出版的贡献为特色。第四届研讨会的重点是加速器质谱（AMS）在海洋学、地球化学、日地物理和水文学等领域的应用。这些领域的研究是美国国家科学基金会地球科学理事会的责任，AMS分析通过允许在比以前可能的更小的样本上进行测量做出了重大贡献。我建议支持研讨会。

This proposal requests partial support to defray the cost of organizing the Fourth International Symposium on Mass Spectrometry. The symposium will be hosted by the University of Rochester and will feature contributed and invited oral presentations and a published volume of the contributions. The focus of the 4th symposium is the application of accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS) in areas such as oceanography, geochemistry, solar-terrestrial physics and hydrology. Research in these areas is a responsibility of the Geosciences directorate of NSF, and AMS analysis has made significant contributions by allowing measurements to be made on much smaller samples than heretofore possible. I recommend support of the symposium.
