The Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory was established in 1952 to do research on nuclear weapons and magnetic fusion energy. Since then, we have added other major programs, including laser fusion and laser isotope separation, biomedical and environmental science, strategic defense, and applied energy technology. These programs, in turn, require research in basic scientific disciplines, including chemistry and materials science, computer science and technology, engineering, and physics. Energy and Technology Review is published monthly to report on unclassified work in all our programs. Various topics concerning Desert Storm are presented in this issue: (1) The Oil/Gas Separator: A New Cap for Quenching Oil-Well Fires; (2) Airborne Detection of Buried Minefields; (3) Assessing the Hazardous Effects of Airborne Particles During and After Operation Desert Storm.
