Summer 2010 Projects
During the summer of 2010 the CASE NSL team worked on several projects:
- Design and construction of an Ion Source Test Stand (Simon Freedman, REU from IIT)
- Mechanical design of a sample changing inverted sputtering negative ion source (Victoria Yu, REU from Rutgers)
- Ion optical design of a sample changing inverted sputtering negative ion source (Danny Pinghero, REU from Clarkson)
- Implementation of and lab manuals for 2 Phy 445/515 experiments (Taposhi Biswas, SBU MAT)
- LabView based control system for the NSL accelerator complex (Greg Wille, SBU MSI)
- Design and implementation of the database for the CASE AMS facility (Will Lunden, SBU student)
- Stochastic variation in customer payment assignment for mid-day coffee (Rich Lefferts, Andrzej Lipski, CASE staff)
Truth be told, everybody worked a bit on everything. Except that only Rich and Andrzej gambled over coffee.
