9357392 Woodward The proposed NYI research initiative is two-fold: 1) development of an infrared imaging spectrometer; and 2) use of this instrument in observational studies of the composition and physical/chemical evolution of astrophysical dust in the interstellar medium. This research also will provide students with 'hands-on' laboratory opportunities and serve as the basis for new course development in advanced technologies. Such experiences beyond the classroom are often a key to motivating and encouraging students to pursue undergraduate and advanced degrees in the sciences. ***

NYI提出的研究计划有两个方面：1)开发红外成像光谱仪；2)利用该仪器对星际介质中天体物理尘埃的组成和物理/化学演化进行观测研究。这项研究还将为学生提供“动手”的实验机会，并作为先进技术新课程开发的基础。这些课堂之外的经历往往是激励和鼓励学生攻读理科本科和高级学位的关键。＊＊＊
