Workshop on High Energy X-ray Techniques 2023, HEXT-2023

该项目将为高能X射线技术讲习班HEXT提供与会者支持，该讲习班将在康奈尔大学校园内的康奈尔高能同步加速器源（CHESS）举行。HEXT-2023研讨会旨在将来自材料研究与教育合作伙伴关系（PREM），物理研究与教育合作伙伴关系（PREP）和化学研究与教育合作伙伴关系（PREC）计划的学生带到CHESS进行为期多日的计划，旨在向学生介绍同步加速器方法。具体而言，参与者将熟悉同步加速器方法-包括衍射，光谱和成像-可以应用于解决材料研究，工程和生物学中的问题。讲习班将包括三个主要部分：1）由CHESS工作人员科学家讲授的讲座，涵盖同步加速器方法的基本原理以及如何将其应用于各种研究问题; 2）参与者收集和处理CHESS光束线数据的实践演示;以及3）指导和指导如何为beamtime编写成功的提案，并有机会获得CHESS科学家的个性化反馈。在研讨会结束时，参与者应具备知识和技能，成为CHESS用户社区的富有成效的成员。为了向学生提供CHESS科学家的专注和关注，HEXT-2023研讨会将于2023年5月15日至17日举行。通过举办研讨会而不与其他活动发生冲突，国际象棋科学家将能够为学生提供不间断的指导。为了招募学生参加HEXT-2023研讨会，将联系PREM，PREP和PREC计划的机构，并鼓励计划的PI/主任提名两名学生参加研讨会。公告将在国际象棋网站和电子邮件列表以及康奈尔事件网站上发布。 在社区有足够兴趣的情况下，会议演讲将使用标准传输模式在互联网上同步播放，供无法前往伊萨卡康奈尔大学校园的与会者（演讲者或观众）使用。亲自参与将是一个优先事项，但事实证明，在旅行或个人困难无法前往伊萨卡的情况下，远程参与是有用的。远程观众和参与者将不得不注册研讨会一样，所有其他参与者，从而促进记录保存和报告。这个奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并已被认为是值得通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估的支持。

This project will provide participant support for a workshop on High Energy X-ray techniques, HEXT, which will take place at the Cornell High Energy Synchrotron Source (CHESS) on the campus of Cornell University. The HEXT-2023 workshop aims to bring students from institutions in the Partnership for Research and Education in Materials (PREM), Partnership for Research and Education in Physics (PREP), and Partnership in Research and Education in Chemistry (PREC) programs to CHESS for a multi-day program designed to introduce students to synchrotron methods. Specifically, participants will be familiarized with how synchrotron methods — including diffraction, spectroscopy, and imaging — that can be applied to address problems in materials research, engineering, and biology. The workshop will consist of three main components: 1) Didactic lectures by CHESS staff scientists that cover the fundamentals of synchrotron methods and how these can be applied to diverse research problems; 2) Hands-on demonstrations where participants collect and process data on CHESS beamlines; and 3) Instruction and coaching on how to write a successful proposal for beamtime, with the opportunity for personalized feedback from CHESS scientists. At the conclusion of the workshop, participants should have the knowledge and demonstrated skills to be productive members of the CHESS user community.To provide the students the dedicated focus and attention of CHESS scientists, the HEXT-2023 workshop will be held on May 15 – 17, 2023. By hosting the workshop without the conflict of another event, CHESS scientists will be able to provide uninterrupted mentorship to the students. To recruit the students for the HEXT-2023 workshop, institutions in the PREM, PREP, and PREC programs will be contacted, and the PIs/Directors of the programs will be encouraged to nominate two students each to attend the workshop. Announcements will be made on the CHESS web sites and email lists as well as the Cornell events web site. In case of sufficient interest from the community, the meeting presentations will be simulcast over the internet using standard transmission modes for participants (either presenters or viewers) who cannot travel to the campus of Cornell University in Ithaca. In person participation will be a priority, but it has proven useful to have remote participation possible in case of travel or personal difficulties that make travel to Ithaca impossible. Remote viewers and participants will have to register for the workshop as do all other participants, thereby facilitating record keeping and reporting.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.
