Twenty Years of Tricks with Tandems

---

Twenty-five years ago, the Livermore Lab built a new tandem accelerator laboratory for applications of ion beam technologies, not nuclear physics per se. Since then, primarily by using accelerator mass spectrometry, the lab has developed vigorous programs in the environmental and geosciences, biosciences, energy sciences and forensic applications relevant to national security. The lab is a major user facility available to academia and industry and now houses three accelerators. Dr. Davis, who designed both the lab and its research programs, will give an informal overview of the lab's capabilities and recent results obtained there.
