This workshop will provide strategies and techniques for designing and executing computational petrology research projects and will engage participants in using software called Rhyolite-MELTS and the Magma Chamber Simulator (MCS) to address questions about open system magma evolution. Participants will: Be introduced to petrologic and geochemical questions that can be addressed by computational tools such as Rhyolite-MELTS and MCS. Be presented with case studies that utilize these computational tools to address petrologic questions. Be introduced to computational research design strategies and data management techniques. Learn the limits of thermodynamic databases and the functionality of computational methods when applied to natural systems. Collaborate and discuss strategies to apply these techniques to petrologic scenarios provided by the conveners. Have the opportunity to pose questions to MCS and Rhyolite-MELTS experts that will aid in the set-up of their computational projects. Network and benefit from the experiences and expertise of other scientists. Petrologists of all levels are encouraged to join the workshop! If you need training on the use of these tools, we will provide Zoom sessions prior to the workshop, with dates to be determined. If you have already taken an MCS workshop or attended a MELTS short course, please consider joining us again for additional training on research project design and execution. MCS and rhyolite-MELTS can also be used as teaching tools for those interested in integration into petrology/geochemistry classes, so please sign up if you would like to use these tools in your classes. The workshop will take place Tuesday, 1st October and Wednesday, 2 October, 08:00-13:30 MST/UTC-7 on both days. Registration is done through the Goldschmidt2024 conference registration form. If you are registering for the workshop only and not participating in the conference, on the Registration Options page of the form, under "Conference Options", please select "Science Workshop Only Remote (no conference attendance)", then choose this workshop in the section "Post-Conference Science Workshop: Remote (October 2024)" before proceeding to payment.

QCD challenges from pp to A–A collisions
Abstract This paper is a write-up of the ideas that were presented, developed and discussed at the third International Workshop on QCD Challenges from pp to A–A, which took place in August 2019 in Lund, Sweden (Workshop link: https://indico.lucas.lu.se/event/1214/ ). The goal of the workshop was to focus on some of the open questions in the field and try to come up with concrete suggestions for how to make progress on both the experimental and theoretical sides. The paper gives a brief introduction to each topic and then summarizes the primary results.

This paper presents insights from the PrXR workshop conducted at IEEE VR 2021. We identified several topic areas related to privacy and security risks for virtual, augmented, and mixed-reality (XR) applications. Risks are presented from the perspective of the XR community. We attempt to thematically group the workshop findings and highlight the challenges brought up by the participants. The identified research topics serve as a roadmap to push forward privacy and security research in the context of XR.more » « less

In this Lessons Learned paper, we describe the implementation of an on-campus workshop focused on supporting faculty as they develop metacognitive interventions for their educational contexts. This on-campus workshop at Duke University included faculty from engineering as well as other faculty from campus and was developed and implemented by members of the Skillful Learning Institute Team. First, we describe the purpose and intent of the workshop by the host institution (Duke University) and the workshop development team (Skillful-Learning Institute Team). We then provide the workshop overview across the two day period, including a description of instruction provided and structured breakout sessions. Next, we provide a lessons learned section from the perspectives of the host institution and the workshop developers. Finally, we offer insights into how those lessons learned are being incorporated into the development of future workshops. By providing the two perspectives, our lessons learned should help those who invite speakers in for faculty development and those who are creating faculty development activities.more » « less
