DEVELOPMENTS IN THE MEASUREMENT OF ACTINIDES AND129I AT LLNL BY ACCELERATOR MASS SPECTROMETRY

Description: The application of ultra-sensitive heavy isotope measurements continues to expand in a variety of fields relevant to the management of nuclear materials, including nuclear isotope forensics and radiobioassay. We have developed a heavy isotope accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS) system at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory's (LLNL) Center for Accelerator Mass Spectrometry (CAMS). The system was designed particularly for the measurement of actinide concentrations and isotopic ratios, but also… more

Imaging Detectors for 20-100 ke V X-ray Backlighters in HEDES Petawatt Experiments

Description: We are developing a petawatt laser for use as a high energy backlighter source in the 20{approx} 100 keV range. High energy x-ray backlighters will be essential for radiographing High-Energy- Density Experimental Science (HEDES) targets for NIF projects especially to probe implosions and high areal density planar samples. For these experiments we are employing two types of detectors: a columnar grown CsI scintillator coupled to a 2K x 2K CCD camera and a CdTe crystal with a special ASIC readout… more
