Research conducted in the Ames Laboratory Nuclear Safeguards and Security Program during the period January 1, 1992 to March 31, 1992 is reviewed. Work in applying optical spectroscopy to the demonstration of actinides and related elements in gas phase is discussed. The application of diode lasers to the measurement of an actinide (U) and the rate-{pi}earth elements by optogalvanic spectrometry is discussed.
