A little bit about my research at college. I had the opportunity to work as an undergraduate student on a research team with SUNY Geneseo. My team created a vaporization system that uses a thyristor to quickly discharge high-voltage capacitors, delivering 500-1000 amps of current through tungsten filaments during a 5-15 millisecond time period. This system is used to test the Short-Lived Isotope Counting System (SLICS), which is being developed to measure the quantity of short-lived radioactive fusion products created in the Laboratory for Laser Energetics (LLE) Omega facility. SLICS is tested with simulated Inertial Confinement Fusion (ICF) products by capturing rapidly vaporized materials after activation with a deuteron beam in the SUNY Geneseo Pelletron Particle Accelerator. Working cooperatively with my colleagues on this project has taught me the significance of peer collaboration and respecting their input to achieve a common goal.
