This award provides funding for engineering design and construction of synchrotron X-ray beamlines and associated instrumentation that will be part of the Advanced Photon Source (APS) facility at Argonne National Laboratory. This project will be specifically aimed at the design and construction of beamlines for use by the earth sciences community. Projected use of the brilliant and tunable microbeam hard X-radiation at APS include research on materials subjected to ultra-high pressures and temperatures simulating conditions in the interior of the Earth, aerosols, submicroscopic phases in rocks and soils, and kinetic studies of phase transformations important in geological processes.

该奖项为同步加速器X射线光束线和相关仪器的工程设计和建造提供资金，这些仪器将成为阿贡国家实验室先进光子源(APS)设施的一部分。该项目将专门设计和建造供地球科学界使用的光束线。APS预计将使用明亮和可调谐的微束硬X辐射，包括研究在超高压和高温下模拟地球内部条件的材料、气溶胶、岩石和土壤中的亚微观相，以及对地质过程中重要的相变进行动力学研究。
