Responsibilities:
Expert’s accomplishments included directing specialized training programs in health physics, radiation instrumentation, radiochemistry, neutron physics, and reactor systems; management of personnel and budgets associated with these programs; and overseeing the purchase and operation of radiation detection instrumentation systems. He taught in the Department of Nuclear Engineering in radiation instrumentation, experimentation, and health physics.
Years Employer Title Department
Years: 1977 to 1981 Employer: University of California Title: Radiation Physicist Department: Los Alamos National Lab, Los Alamos, NM
Responsibilities:
He was a staff member at the 800 MeV Mesons Facility, LAMPF. His accomplishments included applied research in such areas as pulsed fast neutron detection, high-energy nuclear particle detection, and also detection, dose calculations, and shielding of neutrons, gamma rays, and beta particles that accompany an 800 MeV proton accelerator. This involved utilizing indium, gold, aluminum, sulfur, and plastic scintillation neutron activation detectors, as well as BF-3 tubes, PE counters, and TLDs. He was responsible for most neutron and gamma spectrum analyses concerned with health physics at the accelerator.
Years Employer Title Department
Years: 1970 to 1976 Employer: University of Kansas Title: Research Associate Department: Nuclear Science Department
Responsibilities:
From June 1975 to October 1976 Expert was a Research Assistant working on his Ph.D. thesis, renovating a Cockroft-Walton D-T 14 MeV neutron generator. He calculated, constructed, and tested the required shielding for the unit. He designed safeguards, met state regulatory requirements, and operated the neutron generator. He researched and developed the use of the O-16(n,p) reaction to continuously monitor the neutron output of the generator. He applied this system to 14 MeV neutron collimation research and phantom dose measurements. From April 1970 to September 1974, Expert was a Health Physicist Technician, one-quarter time, for the University of Kansas.
Years Employer Title Department
Years: 1966 to 1969 Employer: U.S. Army Title: Health Physicist Department: Nuclear Power Program
