This award of the program for Professional Opportunities for Women in Research and Education (POWRE) supports the research and educational activities of Professor Leah O'Brien of Southern Illinois University at Edwardsville. Research focusses on high resolution molecular spectroscopy of gas phase radicals, with particular emphasis on nuclear hyperfine analysis and interpretation. In academic year 1997-98, work will be conducted at the University of British Columbia, at the National Solar Observatory facility at Kitt Peak, and at Southern Illinois University, in concert with undergraduate and graduate students. The significance of the research is not only the acquisition of the fundamental molecular constants obtained by spectral analysis, but also interpretation of these results, particularly as they relate to chemical bonding and reactivities. The opportunity afforded through the POWRE program will enhance Professor O'Brien's research and leadership potential and her educational mentoring of students at a predominantly undergraduate university.

妇女研究和教育职业机会计划(POWRE)的这一奖项支持了南伊利诺伊大学爱德华兹维尔分校的Leah O‘Brien教授的研究和教育活动。研究集中在气相自由基的高分辨率分子光谱，特别强调核超精细分析和解释。在1997-98学年，将在不列颠哥伦比亚大学、位于基特峰的国家太阳天文台设施和南伊利诺伊大学与本科生和研究生一起开展工作。这项研究的意义不仅在于获得通过光谱分析获得的基本分子常数，而且还包括对这些结果的解释，特别是当它们与化学键和反应性有关时。通过POWRE项目提供的机会将增强奥布莱恩教授的研究和领导潜力，以及她在一所以本科为主的大学对学生的教育指导。
