Energetic Materials Research Field Labs at New Mexico Tech
A tour of the field labs at the Energetic Materials Research and Testing Center (EMRTC) will be given. The tour will consist of a visit to various test ranges contained within the 42-square mile facility. An overview of some of the many testing programs conducted at EMRTC will be provided to participants. The tour will be hosted by the EMRTC personnel responsible for the site safety and operations.
LANSCE
A tour of the LANSCE accelerator complex at LANL will be available for conference members who are 18 years of age and US citizens. LANSCE personnel will conduct the tours of these unique facilities featuring the world's most powerful particle beam accelerator and facilities that use the beam in cutting-edge technology to support the complex process of stockpile stewardship. Post fire photo.
Additional Tours
Other tours of LANL may be provided, depending on mission restrictions. The first is DARHT, the Dual Axis Hydrodynamic Test Facility, the complex's newest facility to support hydrodynamic testing and stockpile stewardship. Additional restrictions may apply for access to DARHT. We also hope to tour some LANL waste facilities used to store, package, and prepare radioactive waste for shipment to WIPP and other long term repositories.
Note: Please be sure to note on the registration form your interest in taking one or more of the tours.
