CBET-0821077KortshagenThis award supports participation of junior scientists in the 2008 Gordon Research Conference on Plasma Processing Science (GRC-PPS), to be held July 13-18, 2008, at Mount Holyoke College, South Hadley, MA. Plasma technology, a focus of the GRC-PPS, has recently been identified as an area of national importance in the National Research Council-sponsored report Plasma 2010. The field is quite interdisciplinary and international, and other countries than the US have larger programs of research and development. It is thus important to expose US students and other researchers to the geographic and ethnic diversity of the fields science and technology.In its tradition of being a forum for the exchange of cutting-edge ideas and knowledge in the area of plasma processing science, the biennial GRC-PPS brings together a diverse, international spectrum of attendees. The format of Gordon Research Conferences is to have relatively few invited talks, limited attendance, and ample time for interactions to provide scientists with ample opportunities for discussions and networking. The present conference will bring 21 invited speakers from industry and universities in the US, Western Europe, Southeast Asia, and Australia, one-third of whom are women. Speakers will cover a broad range of plasma-processing topics in sessions on Plasmas in liquids; Plasma synthesis and treatment of materials, nanomaterials and powders; Plasma sprays and thermal processing; Plasma in Biology and Medicine; Plasma-aided combustion and plasma actuators; Plasma processing for microelectronics and mechanics; Plasmas for renewable energy; New plasma sources, sensors and applications; and Plasmas related to environmental aspects. Engaging junior scientists and engineers in this worldwide field will benefit both them and the larger plasma-research community.

CBET-0821077Kortshagen2008年戈登等离子体处理科学研究会议(GRC-PPS)将于2008年7月13-18日在马萨诸塞州南哈德利的芒特霍利克学院举行。等离子体技术是GRC-PPS的一个重点，最近在国家研究委员会赞助的报告《2010年等离子体》中被确定为国家重要领域。该领域非常跨学科和国际化，美国以外的其他国家都有更大的研发计划。因此，让美国学生和其他研究人员接触到科学和技术领域的地理和种族多样性是很重要的。作为等离子处理科学领域尖端思想和知识交流的论坛，两年一度的GRC-PPS汇聚了不同的国际与会者。戈登研究会议的形式是邀请演讲相对较少，出席人数有限，有充足的互动时间，为科学家提供充足的讨论和网络机会。本次大会将有来自美国、西欧、东南亚和澳大利亚工业界和大学的21位特邀演讲者，其中三分之一是女性。发言者将在各届会议上讨论广泛的等离子体处理专题：液体中的等离子体；材料、纳米材料和粉末的等离子体合成和处理；等离子喷雾和热处理；生物和医学中的等离子体；等离子体辅助燃烧和等离子体致动器；微电子和机械的等离子体加工；可再生能源的等离子体；新型等离子体源、传感器和应用；以及与环境问题有关的等离子体。让初级科学家和工程师参与这一全球领域的工作将使他们和更大的等离子体研究社区都受益。
