Experience

Summary

Since 1965, I have worked for Sandia National Laboratories as a Member of the Technical Staff. Before entering the area of electromagnetic research in 1970, I participated in laser holography research and in research programs to develop microbiological assay and sterilization procedures for the NASA lunar and mars spacecraft exploration programs. After attending Harvard University, I participated in a research program to develop large-scale uses for radioisotopes from the weapon development programs and nuclear reactors that culminated in the design, fabrication, and testing of the world's largest Cesium-137 gamma eradicator, used principally for the sterilization of sewage sludge and the disinfestation of produce of fruit flies. At Harvard and at Sandia, since 1974, I have conducted research, development, and testing programs on weapon effects of nuclear electromagnetic pulses, lightening electrostatic discharges, and electromagnetic radiation. This work has included fundamental research, computer simulation, and nuclear weapon testing programs.
