Kattner, FASM, National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), has been named editor-in-chief of the Journal of Phase Equilibria and Diffusion (JPED). Kattner has served as deputy edi- tor for JPED since 2019 and prior to that was an associate editor for the journal since 2003. She succeeds Prof. John Morral, FASM, who served as editor-in- chief until his sudden and unexpected passing in December 2020. Kattner is a physical scientist at the materials science and engineering division of NIST in Gaithersburg, Md. She received her diploma in mineralogy and her Ph.D. in met- allurgy from the University of Stuttgart, Germany. She then worked as a research associate at the Powder Metallurgical Laboratory of the Max-Planck-Institute for Metals Research in Stuttgart. In 1985, she joined the metallurgy division at NIST (then National Bureau of Standards), first as guest sci- entist and later as physical scientist. Her research interests are thermodynamics and phase equilibria of alloy systems, computational thermodynamics employing the CALPHAD (CALculation of PHAse Diagrams) method, development of multicomponent thermodynamic and phase property databases, and the coupling of phase equilibria calculations with process simulation tools. Kattner has received numerous awards, including the U.S. Department of Commerce Gold Medal Award, the ASM International J. Willard Gibbs Phase Equilibria Award, and the TMS William Hume-Rothery Award. She has authored and coauthored more than 100 papers and book chapters, two of which were recognized with Best Paper Awards from APDIC (Alloy Phase Diagram International Commission) and from the Japan Institute of Metals and Materials. Kattner has served as vice chair and chair of the ASM Alloy Phase Diagramand Content Committees and is amem- ber of the ASM Materials Properties Database Committee. She has organized several symposia at ASM conferences. Thermal Spray Hall of Fame Seeks Nominations The Thermal Spray Hall of Fame, established in 1993 by the Thermal Spray Society of ASM International, recognizes and honors outstanding leaders who have made significant Kattner Carter contributions to the science, technology, practice, educa- tion, management, and advancement of thermal spray.

Nominations are due September 30 for recognition in 2022. Seeking Nominations for TSS President’s Award for Meritorious Service The TSS President’s Award for Meritorious Service recognizes exceptional service to the Society and the ther- mal spray community. Nominees should be TSS members with at least 10 years of service. For a copy of the rules, nomination form, and list of previous recipients, visit tss.asminternational.org or contact maryanne.jerson@ asminternational.org. Nominations are due September 30 for recognition in 2022. Carter Named 2021 Sorby Lecturer Prof. C. Barry Carter has been named the 2021 Henry Clifton Sorby Awardee. Carter is professor emeri- tus at the University of Connecticut in Storrs. He is also a distinguished affili- ate scientist at the Center for Integrated Nanotechnology (CINT) at Sandia and Los Alamos National Laboratories, and a visiting professor at the University of Manchester, U.K. Carter holds a B.A., M.A. and Sc.D. from Cambridge University, an M.Sc. from Imperial College London, and a D. Phil. fromOxford University. He is an Honorary Member of the Indian Institute of Metals and an Honorary Fellow of the Royal Microscopical Society. He was the 1997 president of the Microscopy Society of America (MSA). Carter is the coau- thor of two Springer textbooks and editor of another. He has been editor-in-chief of the Journal of Materials Science since 2004. His current research interests center on intercalation of layered materials, phase change materials, and defects in bcc, fcc, and hcp metals. His lecture entitled, “Microscopy, Dislocations, and Interfaces,” will be held at IMAT 2021 in St. Louis on Tuesday, September 14, 1:00 to 2:00 p.m. in Room 242 of the Ameri- ca’s Center. The Sorby Award is presented annually by the International Metallographic Society.
