My internship at the Los Alamos National Laboratory has been an information-filled summer. Loren Espada-Castillo brought me into her project and helped mentor and guide me through the summer. The project that I was brought into was the process of shooting materials with electrons. The electron beam we used conducts a series of shots in which electrons are generated and then fired towards a target, the sample holder. The sample holder holds either a single sample or three samples. The sample holder also consists of multiple calorimeters surrounding the sample/s. The goal is to shoot certain materials and then analyze how they react to the exposure of the electrons. We shot titanium, which was meant to serve as a containment vessel window.
