Oppenheimer Science and Energy Leadership Program (OSELP) Simulation and Computation at LANL [Slides]

Simulation and Computation plays a pivotal role in maintaining confidence in the stockpile as the approach to underwrite that confidence has changed. The need for resolution and fidelity at scale drives our need for increased computing capability. DOE/NNSA Advanced Simulation and Computing (ASC) program provides the computational surrogate for testing. ASC provides simulation-based confidence in the U.S. stockpile.

LANL HPC Data Center Monitoring (Summer 2022 Talk) [Slides]

HPC Monitoring is tasked with the understanding of everything that happens in the Data Center. They get to that understanding by: collecting logs and metrics, processing data, analyzing data, displaying information, and receiving alerts on events. Their ultimate (and probably unreachable) goal is a holistic view of the Data Center and an understanding of how everything is correlated.

Overview of the LANL Multi-Probe Radiography Project [Slides]

Future radiographic facilities for the U.S. defense program will be required to provide more information as simulation codes improve in both physics’ fidelity and resolution. A possible approach is to use more types of probe beams in addition to, or instead of X-rays, generated by 20-MeV electron accelerators from a small number of directions. High power short-pulse laser systems can generate beams of protons, neutrons and electrons, as well as X-rays. The cost of these systems is falling rapidly. So, it can be imagined that deploying multiple short-pulse lasers along with other, more traditional probes, will become feasible. In this project, we are following three paths to determine if such an approach will succeed for cm-scale objects. The first is an experimental one to determine if the presence of multiple short-pulse probes cause interference with each other, especially while radiographing dynamic objects. The second leg of this project is to determine if having multiple types of probes really does give more information on composition. Finally, an overall assessment of the viability of this approach will be made. Examples from recent experiments at the Omega EP laser will be presented. The initial approach to evaluating radiographs with multiple probes using the Bayesian Inference Engine (BIE) also will be given.
