Description: This project supports experimental and theoretical work on atomic scattering by Dr. James Bayfield of the Department of Physics and Astronomy, University of Pittsburgh, and Dr. S.C. Roy of the Department of Physics, Bose Institute, Calcutta, India. A new body of theory explaining atomic scattering has recently developed because of the availability of results from new sensitive detectors. There is now need to test these theoretical concepts by experimentation. The results of these experiments will be of practical use in the application of radioisotopes for imaging. The collaborative nature of the work is well integrated with most of the experimental work carried out in India by Dr. Roy and the theoretical work conducted in the U.S. by Dr. Bayfield. Scope: This project meshes the strengths of an Indian and U.S. scientist to address a problem of fundamental scientific importance that has immediate practical application. The project nicely meets the objectives of the U.S.-India Cooperative Program by supporting good science and encouraging scientific collaboration between U.S. and Indian investigators.

描述：该项目支持匹兹堡大学物理和天文学系的James Bayfield博士和印度加尔各答玻色研究所物理系的S.C.Roy博士在原子散射方面的实验和理论工作。最近，由于新的灵敏探测器的结果可用，一套新的解释原子散射的理论已经发展起来。现在需要通过实验来检验这些理论概念。这些实验结果将对放射性同位素成像的应用具有实际意义。这项工作的协作性与罗伊博士在印度进行的大部分实验工作以及贝菲尔德博士在美国进行的理论工作很好地结合在一起。范围：这个项目结合了印度和美国科学家的优势，解决了一个具有直接实际应用的基础科学重要性问题。该项目通过支持良好的科学和鼓励美国和印度研究人员之间的科学合作，很好地满足了美印合作计划的目标。
