Dr. Decowski and two undergraduate students from Smith College will participate in an important, forefront experiment to be carried out at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center (SLAC). This experiment will provide extensive, high-quality data on the spin structure of the proton and neutron, structure functions of critical importance for our understanding of the quark-gluon structure of the nucleon. Dr. Decowski and his students will be involved in most aspects of the experiment, including `hands-on` work on improving the detection system during the summer months. Some data analysis will be carried out by the students at Smith College during the academic year. This proposal affords an opportunity for young women at one of the premier womens colleges in the U.S. to participate in scientific research at the cutting edge.

Decowski博士和史密斯学院的两名本科生将参加在斯坦福大学直线加速器中心（SLAC）进行的一项重要的前沿实验。该实验将提供关于质子和中子的自旋结构的大量高质量数据，这些数据对于我们理解核子的夸克-胶子结构至关重要。Decowski博士和他的学生将参与实验的大部分方面，包括在夏季的几个月里改进检测系统的“动手”工作。史密斯学院的学生将在本学年进行一些数据分析。这一提议为美国最好的女子学院之一的年轻女性提供了参与尖端科学研究的机会。
