2005 Laser Diagnostics in Combustion Gordon Conference; July 31-August 5, 2005; Mount Holyoke College, MA

CTS-0509139摘要2005戈登燃烧激光诊断会议戈登燃烧激光诊断研究会议于1981年首次召开，为来自世界各地对使用激光了解燃烧问题感兴趣的科学家提供了一个非正式的论坛。每一次会议本质上都是一个研讨会，对重大研究问题的跨学科讨论是会议的一大亮点。戈登研究会议(GRC)聚集了大约135名科学家，进行了为期一周的激烈互动和科学讨论。会议计划在《科学》杂志上刊登广告，与会者由会议主席从申请者中挑选；过去的GRC关于燃烧激光诊断的会议吸引了200多名合格的申请者。该计划将提供会议费和差旅支持，以确保参与这一重要的论坛。2005年戈登燃烧激光诊断会议介绍了激光诊断的最新进展，以及与NSF任务相关的陆基推进系统燃烧排放中重要的传感器活动。同步加速器源、光纤激光器和宽带相干源方面的新技术，以及在基于激光的颗粒分析和生物化学应用方面的应用，将有助于拓宽本次会议的跨学科性质。这是唯一一个跨学科关注基于激光的燃烧诊断的科学论坛；因此，确保旅行资金为年轻和新兴的美国科学家提供参加这次会议的机会是至关重要的。

CTS-0509139Abstract2005 Laser Diagnostics in Combustion Gordon Conference The Gordon Research Conference on Laser Diagnostics for Combustion, first held in 1981, has served as the off-the-record forum for scientists from all over the world interested in using laser light to understand combustion problems. Each meeting has been essentially a workshop, and the interdisciplinary discussions of major research issues are a highlight of the meeting. The Gordon Research Conference (GRC) brings together approximately 135 scientists for a week of intense interaction and scientific discussion. The meeting program is advertised in the publication Science, and the attendees are chosen by the meeting chair from the pool of applicants; past GRC meetings on Laser Diagnostics for Combustion attract over 200 well-qualified applicants. This program will provide conference fee and travel support to insure participation in this important forum. The 2005 Gordon Conference on Laser Diagnostics for Combustion Program features updates on the latest advances in laser-based diagnostics and sensor activities important in combustion emissions from land-based propulsions systems relevant to the NSF mission. New technology in synchrotron sources, fiber lasers, and broadband coherent sources will be featured, along with applications to laser-based particulate analysis and biochemistry applications that serve to broaden the interdisciplinary nature of this meeting. This is the only scientific forum with an interdisciplinary focus on laser-based diagnostics of combustion; therefore, it is crucial to insure the travel funds to provide young and emerging US scientists access to this meeting.
