9730013 Flower This grant provides partial support of the costs of relocating and upgrading a functioning electron microprobe (EMP) from Northwestern University (NWU) to the University of Illinois at Chicago (UIC). A JEOL 733 that was originally purchased in 1985 for ca. $415,000 with matching funds from NSF in the amount of $250,000 will be housed in a new centralized research instrumentation facility at UIC where trained and experienced microscopy technicians and complementary microscopy facilities (i.e. TEM, SEM) already exist. A large number of PI's will make use of this probe for research spanning the fields of petrology, geochemistry, mineralogy and material science including analyses of melt inclusions in oceanic basalts, thermobarometric studies of mantle xenoliths based on high-resolution EMP data, phyllosilicate mineralogy, high-temperature crystallography and analyses of impurities in ceramics and semiconductors. ***

小行星9730013 这项赠款提供了部分支持的搬迁和升级一个功能的电子微探针（EMP）从西北大学（NWU）的费用，伊利诺伊大学芝加哥（UIC）。 JEOL 733最初于1985年购买。415，000美元与来自NSF的250，000美元的配套资金将被安置在UIC的一个新的集中研究仪器设施中，该设施已经存在训练有素和经验丰富的显微镜技术人员和补充显微镜设施（即TEM，SEM）。 大量的PI将利用该探测器进行岩石学、地球化学、矿物学和材料科学领域的研究，包括海洋玄武岩中熔融包裹体的分析、基于高分辨率EMP数据的地幔捕虏体的温压研究、层状硅酸盐矿物学、高温晶体学以及陶瓷和半导体中杂质的分析。 ***
