U.S.-Japan Seminar: High Pressure-Temperature Research: Properties of Earth and Planetary Materials/ January 23-26, 1996/Maui, Hawaii

该奖项支持8名美国科学家参加将于1996年1月23日至26日在夏威夷举行的关于地球和行星材料高压-高温研究的美日研讨会。共同组织者是夏威夷大学的Murli Manghnani博士和日本东北大学的Yasuhiko Syono教授。这次研讨会的主要目的是就矿物物理高压-高温研究的最新实验和理论成果交换信息和意见。将讨论最近的进展，未来的问题，与实验结果有关的理论问题的评价，国际上使用的高温压力校准尺度，以及最近的研究成果在地球和行星内部的应用。此次会议是20年来在该领域举行的一系列美日研讨会中的第五次会议。尽管核心人员在会议之间保持了连续性，但多年来，研讨会的参与者已经发生了变化，以反映美国和日本参与者之间的适当配对以及研究的进展。美国的参与者在整个超高压-高温技术领域提供了广泛的专业知识和地域代表性，并且是在美国最活跃的研究人员的基础上被选中的。因此，该提案通过国际合作实现了该计划在科学知识交流和转移方面的目标。＊＊＊

9417284 Manghnani This award supports the participation of eight U.S. scientists in a U.S.-Japan seminar on High Pressure-Temperature Research on Earth and Planetary Materials, to be held in Hawaii from January 23-26, 1996. The co-organizers are Dr. Murli Manghnani of the University of Hawaii and Professor Yasuhiko Syono of Tohoku University. The main purpose of this seminar is to enable the exchange of information and ideas on the recent experimental and theoretical results in high pressure-high temperature research in mineral physics. Recent progress, future problems, evaluation of theoretical issues related to experimental results, pressure calibration scales at high temperature in international use, as well as the applications of recent research results to the Earth and planetary interiors will be discussed. This meeting is the fifth in a series of U.S.-Japan seminars in this field held over a period of 20 years. Although a core of individuals has provided continuity from meeting to meeting, participants in the seminars have changed through the years to reflect an appropriate pairing between U.S. and Japanese participants and the progress of the research. The U.S. participants provide a broad cross section of expertise and geographical representation in the overall area of ultrahigh pressure-temperature techniques, and were selected on the basis of being the most active researchers in the U.S. Therefore, this proposal fulfills the objectives of the Program in its exchange and transfer of scientific knowledge through an international collaboration. ***
