SAGAMORE XVI Conference on Charge, Spin and Momentum Densities; Santa Fe, NM;

0934875个奖项该奖项由美国国家科学基金会材料研究部授予纽约州立大学布法罗分校，以支持年轻科学家参加萨加莫尔第十六届会议。大会将于2009年8月2日至7日在新墨西哥州圣达菲举行。萨加莫尔会议于1964年在美国开始，每三年在许多国家举行一次，包括英国、法国、芬兰、德国、瑞典、葡萄牙、波兰、澳大利亚、日本和加拿大。2009年的会议将是近40年来在美国举行的第一次会议。NSF基金将支持早期职业科学家，包括少数族裔参与者、学生、博士后和年轻科学家。在预计的100多名参与者中，早期职业科学家将占很大一部分，预计将在非正式的基础上与在场的更资深的科学家进行广泛的互动。会议将讨论广泛的话题，如电荷、自旋和动量密度，但这次将包括现代中子衍射、纳米粒子的电子结构和时间分辨衍射，这些都是迅速发展的相关领域。这次会议由国际结晶学联合会能源部(DOE)主办，并将由洛斯阿拉莫斯国家实验室的卢扬中子散射中心主办。

0934875 CoppensThis award from the Division of Materials Research at NSF to the State University of New York at Buffalo supports the participation of young scientists at the Sagamore XVI Conference. The Conference will be held in Santa Fe, New Mexico, from August 2-7, 2009 supports. The Sagamore conference started in the US in 1964, has been held every three years in a number of countries, including the UK, France, Finland, Germany, Sweden, Portugal, Poland, Australia, Japan, and Canada. The meeting in 2009 will be the first in the United States in almost 40 years. NSF funds will support early career scientists including minority participants, students, postdocs and young scientists. Early career scientists will make up a significant fraction of the over 100 expected participants and are expected to interact extensively on an informal basis with the more senior scientists present. The conference will discuss a wide range of topics such as charge, spin and momentum Densities, but this time will include sessions on Modern Neutron Diffraction, electronic structure of nanoparticles and time-resolved diffraction, which are rapidly developing related fields. The conference is sponsored by the Department of Energy (DOE), the International Union of Crystallography, and will be hosted by the Lujan Neutron Scattering Center at Los Alamos National Laboratory.
