Technician Support: UCLA Thermal Ionization Mass Spectrometry Facility

小行星9304112 该奖项提供部分资金，以支持洛杉矶的加州大学地球和空间科学系的热电离质谱实验室的技术人员。首席研究员和教师同事为UCLA TIMS实验室提供科学指导，该实验室由三台质谱仪和辅助仪器组成。该实验室为各种地球化学研究项目提供铷、锶、钐、钕、铅和钍的同位素分析，使用这些同位素作为示踪剂或用于地质事件测年。需要一名技术员协助实验室的操作和维护。 ***

9304112 Reid This award provides partial funding to support a technician for the thermal ionization mass spectrometry (TIMS) laboratory in the Department of Earth and Space Sciences at the University of California, Los Angeles. The Principal Investigator and faculty colleagues provide scientific direction for the UCLA TIMS laboratory that consists of three mass spectrometers and ancillary instrumentation. The laboratory provides isotopic analyses of rubidium, strontium, samarium, neodymium, lead, and thorium for a wide variety of geochemical research projects using these isotopes either as tracers or for dating geological events. A technician is needed to assist with the operation and maintenance of the laboratory. ***
