This award is funded under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (Public Law 111-5).This is a project to construct and test a liquid hydrogen target at Ursinus College for use with fast rare isotope beams. The design is based on an existing target developed at RIKEN in Japan. The target will support the ongoing experimental program of the PI at the National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory (NSCL) focused on studies of collective and single-particle structure of exotic nuclei. The target will also be made available for collaborative experiments with Ursinus.The broader impact of the project includes supporting an active research program in nuclear structure on the Ursinus College campus. Ursinus College is a national liberal arts college of about 1600 students with a long history of strength in the sciences. This project will provide students opportunities to apply their knowledge of physics outside the classroom, gain practical technical skills, observe and participate in the operation of a nuclear accelerator facility, and present their work to colleagues.

该奖项是根据2009年美国复苏和再投资法案（公法111-5）资助的。这是一个在乌尔西纳学院建造和测试液氢靶的项目，用于快速稀有同位素光束。这种设计是基于日本理化研究所开发的一种现有靶标。该目标将支持PI在国家超导回旋加速器实验室（NSCL）正在进行的实验项目，重点研究外来核的集体和单粒子结构。该目标也将用于与Ursinus的协作实验。该项目更广泛的影响包括支持一个活跃的研究项目在核结构在乌尔西纳斯学院校园。乌尔西纳斯学院是一所拥有约1600名学生的国立文理学院，在科学方面有着悠久的历史。该项目将为学生提供在课堂外应用物理知识的机会，获得实用的技术技能，观察和参与核加速器设施的运行，并向同事展示他们的工作成果。
