Hardware+Infrastructure
comp ter/office
Indirect costs($240k)
Optics($162k)
Hardware+Infrastructure($41k)
computer/office($38k)

Single grant rarely enough to cover cost of an experiment
($430k)($150k)
Vacuum($30k)
Starting up new experiments is very expensive – done either with startup or DARPA

Thoughts about training
Scant coursework for graduate students entering the fieldExample: Course offerings before 2008 @ UC Berkeley:
• AMO courses: 1 undergraduate + occasional engineering laser course• CM courses: 2 undergraduate, 3 graduate
Where do AMO students learn the CM needed for their research + visa versa?
Few textssituation is improving (see upcoming volume by Levin, Fetter and S-K)
Crossover of personnel between fields limited almost entirely to theoristssee Debbie Jin for famous exception
