The reporting is done by the scientists involved in the research, and an attempt is made to communicate to a general audience. An introduction, defining the scope and general nature of more » T-Division efforts within a given discipline, is followed by articles on the research topics selected. Part III is organized by subject discipline, and describes recent scientific advances of fundamental interest. Each article is a compilation of independent projects within T Division, all related to but addressing different aspects of the major program. Separate articles present T-Divison contributions to weapons research, reactor safety and reactor physics research, fusion research, laser isotope separation, and other energy research. Recent efforts on topics of immediate interest to energy and weapons programs at LASL and elsewhere are described in Part II, Major National Programs. The remainder of the report, Parts II and III, is devoted to articles on selected research activities. This overview is followed by a survey of the 13 groups within the Division, their main responsibilities, interests, and expertise, consulting activities, and recent scientific accomplisments.
Part I presents an overview of the Division: its unique function at the Los Alamos Scientific Laboratory (LASL) and within the scientific community as a whole the organization of personnel the main areas of research and a survey of recent T-Division initiatives.
