Symposium on Effects of Radiation on Materials, June 27-29 1988, Andover, MA, Group Travel Award in Indian Currency

说明：本项目资助印度科学家参加第十四届辐射对材料影响国际研讨会。该研讨会每两年举办一次，由美国材料与试验学会（ASTM） E10核技术与应用委员会主办。它涉及辐射损害的基本和技术方面。随后是由国际代表参加的一系列小组委员会会议，以制定用于核能发电的材料的协商一致标准。印度科学家的参与将增加与美国科学家的合作，特别是因为计划邀请他们访问美国各国家实验室和大学，作为他们访问的一部分。会议记录将以精装书的形式出版，并接受严格的科学同行评审。范围：印度科学家的参与可能有利于研讨会的工作。将根据它们独立提交的摘要的质量和相关性来选择它们，并确保印度核材料界的广泛参与。在项目委员会成员、位于印度泰米尔纳德邦卡尔帕克卡姆的英迪拉·甘地原子研究中心的坎瓦尔·克里山博士的帮助下，私人调查团和研讨会副主席将作出选择。

Description: This project supports travel of Indian scientists to attend the Fourteenth International Symposium on Effects of Radiation on Materials. The symposium is held every two years and is sponsored by the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM), Committee E10 on Nuclear Technology and Applications. It addresses fundamental and technological aspects of radiation damage. It is followed by a series of subcommittee meetings with full international representation to develop consensus standards for materials to be used in nuclear power generation. Participation by Indian scientists will lead to an increased amount of collaboration with U.S. scientists, especially since it is planned to invite them to visit various U.S. national laboratories and universities as part of their trip. Proceedings are to be published in hardbound books and are subject to rigorous scientific peer review. Scope: Indian scientists participation is likely to benefit the working of the symposium. They will be selected based on the quality and relevance of their independently submitted abstracts, and to ensure broad participation of the Indian nuclear materials community. The selection will be made by the P.I. and by the symposium Vice Chairman, with help from Dr. Kanwar Krishan of the Indira Gandhi Center for Atomic Research in Kalpakkam, Tamilnadu, India who is a member of the Program Committee.
