9910249DelaneyThis grant provides partial support for the costs of upgrading the Rutgers University Electron Microprobe (EMP) Facility in the Department of Geological Sciences. Matching funds secured through the NASA Cosmochemistry program will combine with funds from this grant to upgrade the 1987 vintage JEOL JXA-8600 Superprobe from its present DEC PDP 11-based computer control system to a PC-based system running Windows NT. A modern PC-based automation system will be capable of integrated wavelength dispersive and energy dispersive spectroscopy and backscattered electron imaging and will dramatically extend the useful life and capabilities of a still viable EMP. The EMP will be used in continuing microanalytical studies of achondritic meteorites, volcanic glasses and high pressure experimental charges by faculty at Rutgers including Jeremy Delaney, Roger Hewins and Claude Herzberg. In addition, the EMP will facilitate studies by regional geoscientists from Bryn Mawr and West Chester Universities. ****

9910249 Delaney这笔赠款提供了部分支持的费用升级罗格斯大学电子微探针（EMP）设施在地质科学系。 通过NASA宇宙化学计划获得的配套资金将与这笔赠款的资金联合收割机结合起来，将1987年的老式JEOL JXA-8600超级探测器从目前的DEC PDP 11计算机控制系统升级为运行Windows NT的PC系统。 一个现代化的基于个人电脑的自动化系统将能够集成波长色散和能量色散光谱和背散射电子成像，并将大大延长仍然可行的电磁脉冲的使用寿命和能力。 EMP将被罗格斯大学的杰里米·德莱尼、罗杰·赫温斯和克劳德·赫兹伯格等教授用于继续对无球粒陨石、火山玻璃和高压实验电荷进行微观分析研究。 此外，环境管理方案将促进布林莫尔大学和西切斯特大学的区域地球科学家的研究。****
