ABSTRACTThis Proposal requests funding for a 2-day workshop to bring together a broad international community of practitioners and users of in situ produced cosmic-ray nuclides to build the CRONUS-Earth project. The idea for the project grew out of an initial workshop hosted by Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory on 17-19 March 2002. This first meeting was directed at outlining the state of the art and formulating a list of scientific problems that needed to be addressed in order to bring the technique into routine usage. The goal of this second workshop, is to disseminate general information about the state of the science, to solicit ideas for new aspects of the project that were not addressed in the first workshop and to formulate an outline for the final CRONUS-Earth project to be submitted to the NSF and EU. As this workshop will bring together most of the leaders in the field from around the world we anticipate that aside from theCRONUS-Earth proposal, we will be able to formulate guidelines for the use of the technique in the absence of the data that CRONUS-Earth will provide. This alone should be of great use to the community as a whole, as presently the application of this singularly powerful technique is not uniform across groups or labs. Thus, at a minimum, the discussion and outreach that this forum can provide will give the community a clearer view of this extremely important tool both with respect its potential, as well as to its present limitations.

本提案要求为一个为期两天的讲习班提供资金，以便将现场产生的宇宙射线核素的广大国际从业者和用户聚集在一起，建立CRONUS-Earth项目。该项目的想法产生于拉蒙特-多尔蒂地球观测站于2002年3月17日至19日主办的一次初步讲习班。第一次会议的目的是概述最先进的技术，并制定一份需要解决的科学问题清单，以便将该技术投入日常使用。第二次讲习班的目的是传播有关科学现状的一般信息，征求第一次讲习班未涉及的项目新方面的想法，并为提交给国家科学基金会和欧盟的最终CRONUS-地球项目制定大纲。由于本次研讨会将汇集来自世界各地的该领域的大多数领导者，我们预计，除了CRONUS-Earth提案外，我们将能够在没有CRONUS-Earth提供的数据的情况下制定使用该技术的指导方针。这本身就应该对整个社区有很大的用处，因为目前这种非常强大的技术在各个小组或实验室中的应用并不统一。因此，本论坛所能提供的讨论和外联活动至少将使社区更清楚地了解这一极其重要的工具的潜力及其目前的局限性。
