Laser Backscattering at CEBAF and Technology in the Middle School Classroom

汉普顿大学的一名年轻教员获得了职业生涯补助金，支持她利用CEBAF高能电子束激光的康普顿后向散射产生高能偏振光子，用于中能核物理实验。这项技术还将使她能够以万分之一的绝对精度确定电子束能量。Keppel教授的教育工作旨在吸引和鼓励中学阶段的年轻女性进入科学事业。

This CAREER grant to a young faculty member at Hampton University supports her efforts to utilize the Compton backscattering of laser light from high energy electron beams from CEBAF to produce high energy polarized photons for experiments in medium energy nuclear physics. The technique will also enable her to determine the electron beam energy to an absolute accuracy of one part in ten thousand. Prof. Keppel's educational effort is aimed at interesting and encouraging young women at the middle school level into science careers.
