OSTI ID:7247372

The research reported here in summary form was conducted under the auspices of Weapons-Supporting Research (WSR) and Institutional Research and Development (IR D). The period covered is the second half of FY89. WSR is the principal source of discretionary funds to support fundamental research in the Chemistry Materials Science Department (C MS). The purpose of WSR is to provide the scientific and technical base that is required in the longer term for success of the Weapons Program. Administratively, WSR is organized into block-funded programs ( thrust areas'') and a few smaller projects led by individual investigators. A thrust area is designed to provide a coordinated approach to a focused scientific or technological area and typically involves several senior scientists. The results reported here are for work in progress; thus, they may be preliminary, fragmentary, or incomplete.
