National NIF Diagnostic Program Fiscal Year 2002 Third Quarter Report
Since October 2001, the development of the facility diagnostics for NIF has been funded by the NIF Director through the National NIF Diagnostic Program (NNDP). The current emphasis of the NNDP is on diagnostics for the early NIF quad scheduled to be available for experiment commissioning in FY03. During the past nine months, the NNDP has set in place processes for funding diagnostics, developing requirements for diagnostics, design reviews, and monthly status reporting. Work has been funded at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL), Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL), the Naval Research Laboratory (NRL), Sandia National Laboratories (SNL), and Bechtel Nevada at Los Alamos and Santa Barbara. There are no major technical risks with the early diagnostics. The main concerns relate to integration of the diagnostics into the facility; all such issues are being worked. This report is organized to show the schedule and budget status and a summary of Change Control Board actions for the past three months. The following sections then provide short descriptions of the status of each diagnostic. Where design reviews or requirements documents are cited, the documents are available on the Diagnostics file server or on request.
