This award will partially support a conference focused on Electron Backscattered Diffraction (EBSD) planned for May 24-26, 2010, at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, under the sponsorship of the Microbeam Analysis Society. EBSD is an important technique that utilizes the diffraction of high-energy electrons to determine the orientations of crystals in natural and synthetic materials. Diffraction patterns, which are collected with a sensitive camera, can be indexed and combined with a variety of imaging techniques to analyze spatial variations in the texture of single phase and polyphase materials. The resulting data can yield information about both crystal structure and orientation. This approach has major applications in both material science and geology related to understanding everything from crystallization processes to microstructures that record material histories and affect material properties (such as strength and conductivity).This is the second meeting of this type in the U.S. (the first was in 2008), although it occurs annually in Europe, and brings practitioners (and newcomers) together from a variety of fields to exchange information about, and experiences with, EBSD. The first day of our conference will be an all-day tutorial aimed at beginners (students and others) who wish to get up to speed with this technique. The next two days will consist of invited and contributed talks, with a goal being significant interaction among the participants. Poster sessions will be organized and highlighted during the session, allowing additional involvement, particularly by students and post-doctoral researchers. NSF funds will be used to subsidize student participation in the conference.

该奖项将部分支持计划于 2010 年 5 月 24 日至 26 日在威斯康星大学麦迪逊分校举行的以电子背散射衍射 (EBSD) 为主题的会议，该会议由微束分析学会赞助。 EBSD 是一项利用高能电子衍射来确定天然和合成材料中晶体取向的重要技术。使用灵敏相机收集的衍射图案可以被索引并与各种成像技术相结合，以分析单相和多相材料纹理的空间变化。所得数据可以产生有关晶体结构和取向的信息。这种方法在材料科学和地质学中都有重要的应用，涉及了解从结晶过程到记录材料历史并影响材料特性（例如强度和电导率）的微观结构的一切。这是在美国举行的第二次此类会议（第一次是在 2008 年），尽管它每年在欧洲举行一次，并将来自各个领域的从业者（和新来者）聚集在一起，交流有关 EBSD 的信息和经验。我们会议的第一天将是一个全天的教程，针对希望快速掌握这项技术的初学者（学生和其他人）。接下来的两天将包括受邀演讲和贡献演讲，目标是参与者之间进行重要的互动。会议期间将组织并突出海报会议，以允许更多的参与，特别是学生和博士后研究人员的参与。 NSF 资金将用于资助学生参加会议。
