9513164 Lange This award supports a three-year cooperative research project between Prof. Andrew Lange of the California Institute of Technology and Prof. Toshio Matsumoto of the Institute of Space and Astronautical Science (ISAS). This project will facilitate the development of, and analysis of data from, state-of-the-art instrumentation used to conduct astronomical observations at infrared wavelengths from above the Earth's atmosphere. The studies will address fundamental problems in astrophysics, including the diffuse infrared background radiation and the nature of the dark matter in galactic halos. This proposal brings together research scientists from Japan and the U.S. working in the area of experimental astrophysics. The U.S. scientists will have the opportunity to become familiar with research techniques and equipment at ISAS and at Nagoya University. Therefore, this proposal fulfills the objectives of the Program in its exchange and transfer of scientific knowledge through an international collaboration. ***

该奖项支持加州理工学院的Andrew Lange教授和空间与航天科学研究所（ISAS）的Toshio Matsumoto教授进行的为期三年的合作研究项目。该项目将促进先进仪器的开发和数据分析，这些仪器用于从地球大气层上方进行红外波段的天文观测。这些研究将解决天体物理学中的基本问题，包括漫射红外背景辐射和星系晕中暗物质的性质。这项提议汇集了来自日本和美国在实验天体物理学领域工作的研究科学家。美国科学家将有机会熟悉ISAS和名古屋大学的研究技术和设备。因此，该提案通过国际合作实现了该计划在科学知识交流和转移方面的目标。* * *
