Emerging Scientist Travel SupportThe Fifth International Symposium on Radiative TransportJune 17 22, 2007Bodrum, TurkeyThe International Centre for Heat and Mass Transfer Brent W. Webb M. Pinar Menguc Department of Mechanical Engineering Department of Mechanical Engineering Brigham Young University University of Kentucky Provo, UT Lexington, KY Under organizational support of the International Centre for Heat and Mass Transfer (ICHMT), the Fifth International Symposium on Radiative Transfer will be held June 17 - 22, 2007 in Bodrum, Turkey. This Symposium will assemble scientists and engineers working in the fields related to radiative transfer at one venue for the purpose of technical exchange, identification of the state-of-the-art, and the projection of future needs and trends. Increasingly, radiative transport influences directly the processing of many high technology materials and the assembly and fabrication of parts at all scales from silicon chips to steel girders. Papers covering the diverse and contemporary research areas of remote sensing, laser-tissue interaction, in situ characterization of pollutants or aerosols, interaction of radiation with thin films, nano-scale transport phenomena, and others have been received. Such breadth requires interaction across traditional disciplines, and as with past Symposia, this venue will bring together scientists and engineers from what were previously relatively non-communicating disciplines. In short, the objective of the Radiation Transfer Symposia has been the cross-fertilization of ideas among the various industries and applications, accelerating progress in all areas. This proposal requests funds to partially support five emerging scientists for participation in the Symposium. The emphasis will be on PhD students. Supporting travel for emerging scientists to participate in such an interdisciplinary meeting early in their careers has the potential to propel their professional directions toward broader communication among related disciplines. The impact of the Symposium is reflected in the novel interaction of scientists cutting across traditional disciplinary boundaries. Further, the event will facilitate training of the next generation of radiation specialists who will tackle problems not yet conceived. Finally, it is the objective under the proposed NSF support to broaden participation by under-represented groups in the discipline. So far, one female PhD student has been identified for travel support, and others are being solicited. The meeting will provide opportunity for close interaction between these new players from diverse technical backgrounds and established radiative transfer engineers. Sponsoring a symposium with an international flavor is also critical. There are certain research areas which flourish in some countries more than in others. It is not always possible for US-based young researchers to be exposed to such a broad-based representation of radiative transfer problems.

新兴科学家旅行支持第五届国际辐射传输研讨会2007年6月17日至22日土耳其博德鲁姆国际热质传递中心布伦特W。韦伯M. Pinar Menguc机械工程系杨百翰大学机械工程系肯塔基州大学普罗沃，UT列克星敦，KY在国际热质传递中心（ICHMT）的组织支持下，第五届国际辐射传递研讨会将于2007年6月17日至22日在土耳其的博德鲁姆举行。 本次研讨会将聚集在辐射传输相关领域的科学家和工程师在一个地点进行技术交流，确定最先进的技术，并预测未来的需求和趋势。 越来越多的辐射传输直接影响许多高科技材料的加工以及从硅片到钢梁的各种规模的部件的组装和制造。 收到的论文涉及遥感、激光与组织的相互作用、污染物或浮质的现场定性、辐射与薄膜的相互作用、纳米尺度传输现象等各种当代研究领域。 这种广度需要跨传统学科的互动，与过去的研讨会一样，这个场所将汇集来自以前相对不交流的学科的科学家和工程师。 简而言之，辐射转移研讨会的目标是在各个行业和应用之间交流思想，加速各个领域的进展。 该提案要求提供资金，以部分支持5名新科学家参加专题讨论会。 重点将放在博士生身上。 支持新兴科学家在职业生涯早期参加这样的跨学科会议，有可能推动他们的专业方向在相关学科之间进行更广泛的交流。 研讨会的影响反映在科学家跨越传统学科界限的新颖互动中。 此外，该活动将促进培训下一代辐射专家，他们将解决尚未设想到的问题。 最后，建议的NSF支持的目标是扩大该学科中代表性不足的群体的参与。 到目前为止，已确定一名女博士生获得旅行支助，并正在征求其他人的意见。 会议将为这些来自不同技术背景的新参与者和已建立的辐射传输工程师之间的密切互动提供机会。 赞助一个具有国际风味的研讨会也很关键。有些研究领域在某些国家比在其他国家更繁荣。美国的年轻研究人员并不总是能够接触到辐射传输问题的广泛代表性。
