Radiation Effects Science: Advancing the Frontiers of Science and Engineering
- Sandia National Laboratories (SNL-NM), Albuquerque, NM (United States)
Recent improvements in the radiation effects science capability at Sandia have achieved the following: Record gamma-ray outputs at HERMES enable qualification for Life Extension Programs (LEPs) and evaluation of electromagnetic pulse (EMP) effects on electric grid elements; Completed blind comparison for model validation of cavity system generated EMP in advanced computer simulations; For the first time, new diagnostics provide a high resolution photon energy spectrum on Z (Grand Challenge LDRD); ACRR completed record number of operations, two years in a row, to support design and qualification; Installed the nation’s largest GHz electromagnetic test chamber for design and qualification.
