9405438 Rossman This award provides one-half the funding required for the acquisition of components needed to modernize the electron microprobe instrument housed and operated in the Division of Earth and Planetary Sciences at the California Institute of Technology. The institution is committed to providing the remaining funds necessary for this upgrade. The upgrade will provide new computer control and data processing and will allow the electron microprobe lab at Caltech to improve the reliability and analytical capabilities of the eight-year old instrument so that it performs comparably to modern equipment. The electron microprobe at Caltech is used primarily to obtain quantitative chemical composition, with micron scale spatial resolution, of geological and extra-terrestrial material samples needed for a wide variety of research projects in the geosciences. ***

9405438 Rossman该奖项为加利福尼亚理工学院地球与行星科学系安装和运行的电子微探针仪器现代化所需组件的采购提供了一半的资金。该机构承诺为此次升级提供所需的剩余资金。此次升级将提供新的计算机控制和数据处理，并将允许加州理工学院的电子显微探针实验室提高这台已有8年历史的仪器的可靠性和分析能力，使其性能与现代设备相媲美。加州理工学院的电子探针主要用于获取地质和地外物质样品的定量化学成分，具有微米尺度的空间分辨率，这些样品是各种地球科学研究项目所需要的。＊＊＊
