Report of Linac Research and Operations.

Abstract

The operation and use of the NRL 60-MeV electron Linac is described for the period 1 January-31 December 1974. Highlights of the basic and applied research programs are also reviewed. These programs include several projects in radiation vulnerability and hardening, radiation interactions via electron scattering and pulsed neutron studies, nuclear diagnostic programs for laser-fusion and exploding-wire plasmas, and other applications. The Linac was operated for 1875 hours during the period, including use by non-Branch projects. A bibliography is included as well as brief descriptions of Linac use by other groups.
