1996 Chemistry at Interfaces Gordon Conference: Interfacial Structure, July 21-26, 1996 Meriden, New Hampshire

范德利克9630029 这项提案要求提供资金，部分支助定于1996年7月21日至26日在新罕布什尔州梅里登的金博尔联合学院举行的接口戈登会议。 所要求的资金将用于支付出席会议的一些发言者的旅费和会议费用，主要是用于有前途的学生和出席会议的初级教员。 会议的目的是鼓励在界面化学前沿的思想转移，在几组科学家之间，包括电化学家，生物化学家和膜生物学家，化学工程师，胶体和表面科学家，并专注于界面结构的主题，因为它涉及到液体/空气，液体/液体和液体/固体界面。 界面分子垂直和平行于界面的空间排列是重点关注的关键结构问题。 这种分辨率将从原子尺度到超分子尺度。 会议的主题是一个重要的焦点检查物理现象发生在胶体系统，如胶束溶液，微乳液，乳液，分散体，浆料等本次研讨会将有助于总结我们目前的理解，在这些系统中的界面结构，以及这种结构的关系，化学和物理化学现象。 模拟和实验正在成为研究这些界面系统结构的补充方法，因此提议的会议特别及时。 除了解决我们解决结构问题的能力的论文之外，还有解决在这些相同界面处发生的化学的论文，以及由此产生的化学与界面结构的关系。 会议的形式是围绕邀请演讲者详细介绍他们的研究的科学前沿。 正式会议的一半时间用于讨论演讲者和讨论主持人所讲的主题。 正式会议在上午和晚上晚餐后举行。 安排了一个下午的研讨会，两个海报会议安排在下午晚些时候。 海报由各与会者提供，并为与会议主题有关的其他贡献提供了场所。 ***

Vanderlick 9630029 This proposal requests funds in partial support of the Interfaces Gordon Conference to be held 21-26 July 1996 at Kimball Union Academy in Meriden, New Hampshire. The funds requested will be used to defray travel and conference expenses for some of the speakers attending the conference and principally for promising students and junior faculty attending the conference. The purpose of the conference is to encourage the transfer of ideas at the frontiers of chemistry at interfaces, among several groups of scientists, including electrochemists, biophysicists and membrane biologists, chemical engineers, and colloid and surface scientists, and to focus on the topic of Interfacial Structure as it relates to liquid/air, liquid/liquid, and liquid/solid interfaces. The spatial arrangement of interfacial molecules normal and parallel to the interfaces is the key structural issue that will be focused upon. This resolution will range from atomic scale to supramolecular. The conference topic is an important focal point for examining physical pheomena that occur in colloidal systems such as micellar solutions, microemulsions, emulsions, dispersions, slurries, etc. This symposium will serve to summarize our current understanding of interfacial structure in these systems, and the relation of this structure to chemical and physiochemical phenomena. Simulations and experiments are becoming complementary approaches to investigating the structure of these interfacial systems, so the proposed conference is particularly timely. In addition to papers that address our ability to resolve structural issues, are papers that address chemistry occurring at these same interfaces, and the relation of the resulting chemistry to the interfacial structure. The format of the conference is built around invited speakers detailing the scientific frontiers of their research. Half of the formal conference time is devoted to discussion of topics addressed by the speakers and by the discussion leade rs. The formal sessions are held in the morning and after dinner in the evening. One afternoon workshop is scheduled, and two poster session are scheduled in later afternoon time slots. Posters are contributed by the various conferees, and afford a venue for additional contributions relevant to the conference theme. ***
