1639433 - PaluchThis grant is to provide partial support for the Midwest Thermodynamics and Statistical Mechanics (MTSM) Conference to be held on the campus of Miami University (Ohio) on May 25-27, 2016. The MTSM Conference has historically provided a forum for researchers working on theoretical and experimental aspects of Thermodynamics and Statistical Mechanics to come together, present their work and exchange ideas. Most participants will be from chemical engineering and chemistry departments, although students and faculty from physics, materials science, mechanical engineering, and computer science departments have also participated in this conference in the past.Intellectual Merit:Thermodynamics and Statistical Mechanics are an important area of research that has a wide spectrum of applications in chemical, biological and natural systems. The MTSM Conference series has a 28-year history and attracts participants from academic institutions, industry and national laboratories. Most attendees are from institutions located in the midwest region of the US, which has a large concentration of researchers working in the field of Thermodynamics and Statistical Mechanics. The Conference participants will have the opportunity to attend state-of-the-art invited presentations by leading experts in the field and debate controversial points with their peers.Broader Impacts:The conference participants supported by this grant will have the opportunity to network with peers from other institutions and exchange ideas about the current status and future directions in research and education in an important area of research: Thermodynamics and Statistical Mechanics. A distinctive feature of The MTSM Conference is its focus on researchers in the early stages of their academic careers, such as undergraduate and graduate students, postdocs, and junior faculty. Because the meetings are regional and organization costs are kept to a minimum, faculty members are often able to travel with their entire group to the meeting.

1639433 - PaluchThis赠款是提供部分支持的中西部热力学和统计力学（MTSM）会议将在校园内举行的迈阿密大学（俄亥俄州）在2016年5月25日至27日。MTSM会议历史上为热力学和统计力学的理论和实验方面的研究人员提供了一个论坛，聚集在一起，展示他们的工作和交流思想。本次会议的与会者主要来自化学工程系和化学系，而物理系、材料科学系、机械工程系和计算机科学系的学生和教师也曾参加过。学术价值：热力学和统计力学是一个重要的研究领域，在化学、生物和自然系统中有着广泛的应用。MTSM系列会议已有28年的历史，吸引了来自学术机构、工业和国家实验室的参与者。 大多数与会者来自位于美国中西部地区的机构，该地区有大量在热力学和统计力学领域工作的研究人员。与会者将有机会参加该领域领先专家的最先进的特邀演讲，并与同行讨论有争议的观点。更广泛的影响：获得该资助的与会者将有机会与其他机构的同行建立联系，并就一个重要研究领域的研究和教育的现状和未来方向交换意见：热力学和统计力学。MTSM会议的一个显着特点是其重点研究人员在他们的学术生涯的早期阶段，如本科生和研究生，博士后和初级教师。由于会议是区域性的，组织成本保持在最低限度，教师往往能够与他们的整个小组前往会议。
