美国国家科学基金会-化学与运输系统分部-颗粒与多相过程计划（1415）摘要提案号：cts -0627929首席研究员：Sorenson， Christopher隶属于：堪萨斯州立大学提案标题：支持学生参加纳米气溶胶表征专题讨论会智力优势散射是表征材料结构的有力方法。随着纳米技术的出现，表征纳米粒子和气溶胶变得越来越重要，需要利用新技术来实现这些目标。本次会议将报告近年来在各种项目上发现新技术的成果，这些项目包括燃烧中的烟尘形成、气溶胶反应器中的材料合成以及水纳米液滴的结构。更广泛的影响参加本次研讨会的美国学生和博士后将有机会与国际领先的专家进行互动，了解世界范围内该领域的最新技术状况，交流思想并制定合作项目。研究生也将有机会了解国家设施如何在他们的研究中发挥重要作用。

National Science Foundation - Division of Chemical &Transport Systems Particulate & Multiphase Processes Program (1415)ABSTRACTProposal Number: CTS-0627929Principal Investigator: Sorenson, Christopher MAffiliation: Kansas State UniversityProposal Title: Support for Students to Attend Nanoaerosol Characterization SymposiumIntellectual MeritScattering is a powerful way to characterize the structure of material. With the advent of nanotechnology it has become more important to characterize nanoparticles and aerosols, and new techniques need to be utilized to these ends. This conference will report on the results of efforts over recent years to discover new techniques on projects as diverse as soot formation in combustion, material synthesis in aerosol reactors, and the structure of aqueous nanodroplets.Broader ImpactThe participation of US students and post-docs in this symposium will provide an opportunity to interact with leading international experts and become familiar with the current state of the art of this field world-wide, exchange ideas and develop collaborative projects. Graduate students will also have the opportunity to learn how national facilities can play an important role in their research.
