9316486 Lasaga This award provides one-half the funding required to purchase computer equipment to be installed, operated and maintained in the Department of Geology and Geophysics at Yale University. The University is committed to providing the remaining funds necessary for the equipment acquisition. The computer system will be used primarily by the geochemistry group at Yale who are engaged in computer-intensive research on modeling of erosion and geochemical cycles, quantum mechanical calculations of silicates, kinetics of mineral dissolution and surface adsorption, molecular dynamics of silicate glasses and melts, Monte Carlo simulations of crystal growth and solution under natural conditions, and studies of chemical reactions in sedimentary basins and ore deposits. ***

9316486 Lasaga这个奖项提供了购买计算机设备所需资金的一半，这些设备将在耶鲁大学地质和地球物理系安装、操作和维护。该大学承诺提供购置设备所需的剩余资金。该计算机系统将主要由耶鲁大学的地球化学组使用，他们从事以下方面的计算机密集研究：侵蚀和地球化学循环的模拟、硅酸盐的量子力学计算、矿物溶解和表面吸附的动力学、硅酸盐玻璃和熔体的分子动力学、自然条件下晶体生长和溶液的蒙特卡罗模拟，以及沉积盆地和矿床中的化学反应研究。***
