9400099 Cole This three-year award supports U.S.-U.K. cooperative research in materials science between Milton Cole of Pennsylvania State University and Julia Yeomans of Oxford University. The focus of their research is physical adsorption on surfaces. Two principal topics will receive attention: capillary condensation in porous media; and wetting and prewetting phenomena. The U.S. and U.K. investigators, who are theoretical physicists, have considerable expertise and overlapping interests. They will collaborate on calculations and new models. The field of physical adsorption has received much attention in the last few years because of its technological importance. While this proposal addresses fundamental questions of interest to surface scientists and chemical engineers, its topics underpin important technologies for pollution control, catalysis and chemical segregation. ***

9400099 Cole 这个为期三年的奖项支持宾夕法尼亚州立大学的 Milton Cole 和牛津大学的 Julia Yeomans 之间的美英材料科学合作研究。 他们研究的重点是表面的物理吸附。 两个主要主题将受到关注：多孔介质中的毛细管凝结；以及润湿和预润湿现象。 美国和英国的研究人员都是理论物理学家，拥有丰富的专业知识和重叠的兴趣。 他们将在计算和新模型方面进行合作。 物理吸附领域由于其技术重要性在过去几年中受到了广泛关注。虽然该提案解决了表面科学家和化学工程师感兴趣的基本问题，但其主题支撑了污染控制、催化和化学分离的重要技术。 ***
