 Pinellas Plant tenant expands, another moves in - 1997-01-20 - Tampa Bay Business Journal
Constellation's main potential product is its radiation detection gear, which uses a unique mercuric iodine crystal developed by the company's chief scientist, Lodewijk van den Berg.
While van den Berg declined to share all the revolutionary technology's secrets (he doesn't want to tip his hand to nuclear thieves), he said Constellation's radiation detection equipment will not only be able to determine whether something is radioactive, but will be able to name the exact substance emitting the radiation.
Constellation's van der Berg -- who among other previous jobs was the payload specialist aboard the space shuttle's Space Lab III -- said that because the ruby-colored crystals work at room temperature, the new sensing equipment can be housed in something as portable, and inconspicuous, as a pocket calculator.

 25 Years of Microgravity Science
The first experiment was performed by Dr. Lodewijk van den Berg of EGandG Corporation in the NASA-developed Vapor Crystal Growth System (VCGS).
Lodewijk van den Berg concluded from these results that vapor crystal growth is a process that can be transplanted successfully to space, where higher quality crystals with improved electronic properties can be grown.
In a separate and complementary mercuric iodide experiment sponsored by the French Space Agency, six crystals were grown under conditions where pressure, temperature, and seed crystal orientation varied.

Yeah, I know, Shuttle astronaut autographs aren't as cool as the 43 pre-Shuttle guys, but everyone who has flown in space is special and belongs to that most elite club of less than 400 space voyagers.
This is a deceptively difficult category, as a number of the Shuttle guys just haven't autographed much and their autographs take some searching to find, such as Lodewijk van den Berg, Ron Parise, Ron Sega, Maurizio Cheli, Kay Hire and Valery Tokarev.
But a complete Shuttle astronaut autograph collection is quite possible and it is an ongoing collection; with the Shuttle continuing to fly, there will be a new flown Shuttle astronaut or two on almost every flight.
