With this award from the Chemistry Major Research Instrumentation Program, Professor Erich Uffelman from Washington & Lee University and colleagues Alison Bell, Donald Gaylord, Patricia Hobbs and Ronald Fuchs will acquire a fiber optic reflectance spectrometer (FORS). The proposal is aimed at enhancing research and education at all levels, especially in areas such as analyses of cultural heritage objects as well as geological studies of weathering and topographical change in the Appalachians.A reflectance spectrometer measures the radiation of the electromagnetic radiation that is reflected by different materials. The spectrometer can gather data on ultraviolet (UV) light and infrared (IR) radiation in addition to the visible ranges. It is commonly used to study minerals, planetary surfaces and in this case to analyze and screen cultural heritage objects such as paintings, porcelain and other museum-quality artifacts to aid in the preservation efforts. This instrument will be used for research and also in educational activities.

通过化学主要研究仪器计划的奖项，华盛顿大学和李大学的埃里希·乌菲尔曼（Erich Uffelman）以及同事艾莉森·贝尔（Alison Bell），唐纳德·盖洛德（Donald Gaylord），帕特里夏·霍布斯（Patricia Hobbs）和罗纳德·福克斯（Ronald Fuchs）将获得光纤反射仪（FORS）。该提案旨在增强各个层次的研究和教育，尤其是在阿巴拉契亚语中文化遗产对象的分析以及对风化和地形变化的地质研究等领域。反射光谱仪测量电磁辐射的辐射，这些辐射被不同的材料反射。除可见范围外，光谱仪还可以收集有关紫外线（UV）光线和红外（IR）辐射的数据。它通常用于研究矿物质，行星表面，在这种情况下，用于分析和筛选文化遗产物体，例如绘画，瓷器和其他博物馆质量的文物，以帮助进行保护工作。该工具将用于研究和教育活动。
