United States Participation in European Center for Atomic and Molecular Calculations Workshops

这一为期三年的奖项将支持美国博士后助理、新教师和研究生参加计算科学的年度研讨会，包括原子和分子物理、等离子体、凝聚态物质、材料科学、量子化学和化学工程领域。研讨会将在法国里昂诺马尔高等学院举行，由CECAM(欧洲原子和分子计算中心)赞助。CECAM是一个由九个西欧研究机构组成的联盟。其目标是通过组织关于重大、复杂研究主题的研讨会，作为计算科学新兴研究领域的催化剂。这些研讨会利用了CECAM的独特资源，并为处于职业生涯早期的美国科学家提供了国际机会。美国参加1997-98年CECAM研讨会的资金来自数学和物理科学局多学科活动办公室和国际项目部西欧项目。

This three-year award will support participation of US postdoctoral associates, new faculty and graduate students in annual workshops in computational science including the fields of atomic and molecular physics, plasmas, condensed matter, materials science, quantum chemistry, and chemical engineering. The workshops will be held at the Ecole Normale Superieure in Lyon, France under the sponsorship of CECAM (the European Center for Atomic and Molecular Computations). CECAM is a consortium of nine Western European research organizations. Its goal is to act as a catalyst for emerging research fields in computational science through the organization of workshops on major, complex research themes. The workshops take advantage of CECAM's unique resources and provides international opportunities for US scientists at an early stage in their careers. US participation in the 1997-98 CECAM workshops is funded by the Office of Multidisciplinary Activities, Directorate for Mathematical and Physical Sciences, and the Western Europe Program, Division of International Programs.
