United States Participation in European Center for Atomic and Molecular Calculations Workshops

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

This three-year award will support participation of US postdoctoral associates, new faculty and graduate students in annual workshops in computational science including the fields of atomic and molecular physics, plasmas, condensed matter, materials science, quantum chemistry, and chemical engineering. The workshops will be held at the Ecole Normale Superieure in Lyon, France under the sponsorship of CECAM (the European Center for Atomic and Molecular Computations). CECAM is a consortium of nine Western European research organizations. Its goal is to act as a catalyst for emerging research fields in computational science through the organization of workshops on major, complex research themes. The workshops take advantage of CECAM's unique resources and provides international opportunities for US scientists at an early stage in their careers. US participation in the 1997-98 CECAM workshops is funded by the Office of Multidisciplinary Activities, Directorate for Mathematical and Physical Sciences, and the Western Europe Program, Division of International Programs.
