This award provides financial support for participation of 10 early career (graduate student, postdoc or tenure-track faculty) at the 2018 Workshop of the International Union of Crystallography (IUCr) Commission on High Pressure, which will be held in Honolulu Hawaii, from July 29, until August 2, 2018 at the Ala Moana Hotel. 3.5 days of regular conference program will be preceded with a one full-day student/postdoc training event on analysis of single crystal X-ray diffraction data at high pressure.Extreme-conditions science is a vibrant, multidisciplinary field that characterizes unique states of matter, simulates processes that take place in inaccessible environments such as planetary interiors, and synthesizes new materials with properties that have compelling technological applications. Understanding of the effect of pressure on minerals and earth forming materials is central to geophysics, mineral physics and planetary science. The interiors of all planetary bodies are built of minerals that exist under high pressure and temperature conditions. Meteorite ejection and impact phenomena involve generation of dynamic shock pressure. Understanding how pressure affects the structure, properties and behavior of minerals enables understanding of global phenomena such as earthquakes, volcanism, plate tectonics, etc. Proper education of the new generation of earth scientists who will study and model properties and processes of planetary interiors is an issue of great importance for the future of geosciences, and represents a significant challenge. The workshop will emphasize training of young scientists in basic principles of single crystal sample preparation, data collecting and analysis.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

该奖项为10名早期职业（研究生，博士后或终身教职人员）参加2018年国际晶体学联合会（IUCr）高压委员会研讨会提供经济支持，该研讨会将于7月29日至2018年8月2日在檀香山夏威夷的Ala Moana酒店举行。3.5在为期两天的常规会议计划之前，将举行为期一天的关于高压下单晶X射线衍射数据分析的学生/博士后培训活动。极端条件科学是一个充满活力的多学科领域，它描述了物质的独特状态，模拟了在行星内部等难以接近的环境中发生的过程，并合成了具有引人注目的技术应用性能的新材料。了解压力对矿物和地球形成物质的影响是地球物理学、矿物物理学和行星科学的核心。所有行星体的内部都是由存在于高压和高温条件下的矿物质构成的。陨石抛射和撞击现象涉及动态冲击压力的产生。了解压力如何影响矿物的结构，性质和行为，使全球现象，如地震，火山活动，板块构造等的理解，适当的教育，新一代的地球科学家谁将研究和模型的性质和过程的行星内部是一个非常重要的问题，为地球科学的未来，并代表了一个重大的挑战。该研讨会将强调对年轻科学家进行单晶样品制备、数据收集和分析基本原理的培训。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
