TRW Inc. was an American corporation involved in aerospace, automotive, and credit reporting. It was a pioneer in multiple fields including electronic components, integrated circuits, computers, software and systems engineering. TRW built many spacecraft, including Pioneer 1, Pioneer 10, and several space-based observatories. In 1958 the company was called Thompson Ramo Woolridge, after three prominent leaders. This was later shortened to TRW. The company was acquired by Northrop Grumman in 2002. It helped create a variety of corporations, including the Aerospace Corporation, Bunker-Ramo, Experian, and TRW Automotive which is now part of ZF Friedrichshafen. Persons coming from TRW were important to build up corporations like SpaceX. In 1953, the company was recruited to lead the development of the United States' first ICBM. Starting with the initial design by Convair, the multi-corporate team launched Atlas in 1957. It flew its full range in 1958 and was adapted to fly the Mercury astronauts into orbit. TRW also led development of the Titan missile. In this issue are spacecraft details for 1984 and 1985, manned spaceflight records, Space launches, STS Payload Deployment Record, Payloads in orbit, and Summary Log of Space Launches 1984-1985.

Wraps. Zustand: Very good. Presumed First Edition, First printing. 24 pages (counting covers). Illustrations (color). This is a special issue focusing on the Isotope Production Facility (IPF). Isotope Production Facility at the Los Alamos National Laboratory produces radioactive isotopes for medical, environmental, industrial as well as research applications. The Isotope Production Facility (IPF) at LANSCE supplies a wide range of radioisotopes to researchers all over the world and has been a leader in developing and producing new and unique isotopes for research and development. Cover has slight wear and soiling. The Los Alamos Neutron Science Center (LANSCE), formerly known as the Los Alamos Meson Physics Facility (LAMPF) is one of the world's most powerful linear accelerators. It is located in Los Alamos National Laboratory in New Mexico in Technical Area 53 (TA-53). It was the most powerful linear accelerator in the world when it was opened in June 1972.[1] The technology used in the accelerator was developed in part by the nuclear physicist Louis Rosen. The facility is capable of accelerating protons up to 800 MeV. Multiple beamlines allow for a variety of experiments to be run at once, and the facility is used for many types of research in materials testing and neutron science. It is also used for medical radioisotope production. LANSCE provides the scientific community with intense sources of neutrons with the capability of performing experiments supporting civilian and national security research. The Department of Energy, National Nuclear Security Administration, Office of Science, Office of Nuclear Energy, and Office of Science and Technology - the principal sponsors of LANSCE - have synergistic long-term needs for the accelerator and neutron science that is the heart of LANSCE. LANSCE provides solutions to national security problems. It serves an international user community conducting diverse forefront basic and applied research. Since 1972, the 800-million-electronvolt (MeV) accelerator and its attendant facilities at Technical Area 53 (TA-53, often referred to as "the Mesa") at Los Alamos National Laboratory have been a resource to a broad international community of scientific researchers. The Los Alamos Meson Physics Facility (LAMPF), as it was originally called, hosted about 1000 users per year to perform medium energy physics experiments. In 1977, a pulsed spallation neutron source was commissioned to supply moderated and unmoderated neutrons to time-of-flight experiments in the facility called the Weapons Neutron Research (WNR) Center. Neutron scattering experiments were started immediately and by 1983 the Department of Energy's Office of Basic Energy Sciences was funding a formal user program. Beginning in 1985, with the completion of the Proton Storage Ring (PSR) that compresses proton pulses from 750 microseconds to a quarter of a microsecond, the Los Alamos Neutron Scattering Center (LANSCE), now known as the Lujan Center, was established while WNR was expanded to other spallation sources on the accelerator beam. In 1995 LAMPF was renamed the Los Alamos Neutron Science Center (LANSCE) to reflect the broad base of neutron research being conducted on behalf of the weapons program and basic research; the name of the BES neutron scattering facility was simultaneously changed from LANSCE to the Manuel Lujan Jr. Neutron Scattering Center. In 1996, a Memorandum of Understanding was established between the Department of Energy's Offices of Energy Research (ER) and Defense Programs (DP) to define the stewardship of the facility and its experimental areas in the context of the new Scientific Stockpile Stewardship Program. In 2001, the MOU was rewritten to include three branches of the Department of Energy (DOE)-the National Nuclear Security Administration Defense Program (DP), the Office of Science (SC), and the Office of Nuclear Energy (NE)-and the Laboratory officially designated LANSCE as an approved user facility. Several key events have occurred during the last 20 years that h. Robert Kramer (Photographer) (illustrator).…

From a Los Alamos Experimental Physical Sciences website; "Research and experimental facilities spanning a broad range of complex scientific areas. Frequently our most basic research experiments stimulate solutions for some of the most intractable national security problems, such as: Nuclear weapons stewardship Homeland security Intelligence and information analysis Nuclear and alternative energy Our scientific success often stems from the capabilities of our world-class research and processing facilities, including our Los Alamos National Laboratory-based national user facilities: Los Alamos Neutron Science Center (LANSCE) Center for Integrated Nanotechnologies (CINT) National High Magnetic Field Laboratory (NHMFL) The capabilities of our flagship facility, LANSCE, afford us a convenient and powerful opportunity to test our ideas. We often combine forces with colleagues in theoretical physics, high performance computing, and computational science to formulate experiments that can validate theories and computational models. Matter-Radiation Interactions in Extremes (MaRIE) will provide a capability to address the control of performance and production of materials at the mesoscale. MaRIE fills a critical gap in length scale between studies conducted at the integral scale at DARHT and U1a, and at the atomic scale at NIF and Z. NNSA does not currently have a capability to understand and test materials response regimes at resolution necessary to understand the linkages between materials microstructure and performance in extreme environments. The process of MaRIE is to resolve this capability gap. MaRIE (Matter-Radiation Interactions in Extremes) is designed to support key NNSA goals to understand the condition of the nuclear stockpile and to extend the life of U.S. nuclear warheads. When combined with the emerging computational capability to simulate materials at ultrahigh resolution, MaRIE will fill the gap in understanding of micro- and mesoscale materials phenomena and how they affect weapon performance. Two New Predictive Capabilities for Weapons Performance: Extreme Conditions: The ability to predict how micro- and mesoscale materials properties evolve under weapons-relevant extreme conditions (including aging) and impact performance. New Materials: The ability to predict the microstructure of new materials (or those resulting from new manufacturing processes) and how that will affect weapons performance. A key characteristic of MaRIE is the ability to simultaneously apply several in situ diagnostics to observe transient phenomena at high resolution, in real time, under weapons relevant extreme conditions. Of highest significance are subgranular resolution measurements of phase transformations, heterogeneity, and strength of materials in samples that have been well characterized. The resulting data will be used to build new, or inform existing, high-fidelity materials models for weapons simulation codes. These data are particularly aimed at understanding the behavior of high explosives and plutonium as they apply to implosion dynamics and initial conditions for boost. New understanding will increase confidence in the performance prediction of life-extended weapons and in the success of any technical response to a change in the deterrent imposed by budget realities or external pressures.
