Technician Support for the Electron-Beam Facility at the University of Oregon: Phase II

小行星9712115 这项赠款提供80 000美元作为两年的部分薪金，用于继续支持一名技术人员监督操作和维护，并在俄勒冈州大学的电子束设施培训电子微探针（EMP）和扫描电子显微镜（SEM）的新用户。 这是综合框架/可持续发展方案下的第二阶段技术支持赠款。继续向俄勒冈州大学的电子束设施提供技术支助，将大大有助于满足若干资助研究项目的化学和物理定量和定性分析需要，这些项目包括：为阐明岩浆房过程而进行的火山岩结构分析、变质和热液蚀变过程中流体-岩石相互作用的研究、高压实验岩石学研究、沉积岩石学和储集岩物理特性的研究以及合成材料性质的研究。 最后，大量的研究生和本科生受益于该技术人员提供的培训，作为正式的部门分析方法课程的一部分。 ***

9712115 Rice This grant provides $80,000 as two-years partial salary for continued support of a technician to oversee operations and maintenance and train new users on both the electron microprobe (EMP) and the scanning electron microscope (SEM) at the electron- beam facility, University of Oregon. This is a Phase II grant for technical support under the IF/EAR program. Continuation of technical support for the electron-beam facility at the University of Oregon will greatly contribute to the chemical and physical quantitative and qualitative analytical needs of a number of funded research projects including, textural analyses of volcanic rock to elucidate magma chamber processes, studies of fluid-rock interactions during metamorphism and hydrothermal alteration, studies in high pressure experimental petrology, studies in sedimentary petrology and reservoir rock physical characteristics and studies of the properties of synthetic materials. Finally, a large number of graduate and undergraduate students benefit from the training that this technician provides as part of a formal departmental analytical methodology course. ***
