CEC & ICMC Student Meritorious Paper Award

It has been a long standing practice of the Cryogenic Engineering Conference (CEC) and the International Cryogenic Materials Conference (ICMC) to present awards to students for outstanding work.  The Student Meritorious Paper Award(s) will be presented at the conference.  Each winner will receive a printed certificate and a monetary award. 


The Student Meritorious Paper Award is awarded to students for outstanding work.  Winners will receive a printed certificate and a monetary award.



The 2011 CEC Student Meritorious Paper Award is presented to:
“Analytical Model for a Pulse Tube Cryocooler Bellows Phase Shifter and Experimental Results”
M. J. Cheadle, G. F. Nellis, and S. A. Klein
The student author to whom the award is presented is M. J. Cheadle, University of Wisconsin-Madison, USA.

The 2011 ICMC Student Meritorious Paper Award is presented to:
“Cryogenic Properties of Hollow Glass Microsphere/Epoxy Composite”
Z. X. Wu, R. J. Huang, X. X. Chu, C. J. Huang, and L. F. Li
The student author to whom the award is presented is Z. Wu, Technical Institute of Physics and Chemistry, Chinese Academy of Sciences, China.


Selection will be competitive and based upon:
1. Submission of an acceptable manuscript per the CEC/ICMC format.
2. Letters of recommendation (at least two) from the student's thesis advisor, dean, and/or other academic advisor.  The letters must include:
  • a summary of the student's capabilities and accomplishments,
  • an assessment of the amount of the presented work that is actually attributable to the student,
  • a personal evaluation of the studentʼs potential as a professional cryogenic engineer/scientist.

Award winners must personally present their paper at the conference to receive the cash award and certificate.

The deadline for Student Meritorious Paper submissions is April 4, 2011.
