	Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		The Ernest Orlando Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL), formerly the Berkeley Radiation Laboratory (Rad Lab) and usually shortened to Berkeley Lab or LBL, is a U.S. Department of Energy national laboratory in Berkeley, California conducting unclassified scientific research.
		After the laboratory was scooped on a number of fundamental discoveries that they felt they ought to have made, the "cyclotroneers" began to collaborate more closely with the theoretical physicists in the Berkeley Department of Physics, led by Robert Oppenheimer.
		The laboratory is also the site of the a number of National User Facilities, including the Advanced Light Source, National Center for Electron Microscopy, National Energy Research Scientific Computing Center, the Energy Sciences Network and the future Molecular Foundry.

	Experiment 1
		Thermal radiation is the energy emitted by a body as result of its finite temperature.In contrast to heat transfer through convection and conduction, radiation heat transfer does not require a medium and can occur in a vacuum.
		Whether thermal radiation is visible, and at what color, is a function of the portion of the radiation that falls within the visible spectrum.
		The Pasco TD-8553 radiation sensor produces a voltage output, which is proportional to the intensity of radiation incident upon the sensor.

	History of Synchrotron Radiation Sources (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		Interest in the radiation as an energy-loss mechanism was reawakened in the 1920s after physicists began contemplating magnetic-induction electron accelerators (betatrons) as machines to produce intense beams of x rays by directing the accelerated beam to a suitable target.
		Fortunately for the future of synchrotron radiation, the machine was not fully shielded and the coating on the doughnut-shaped electron tube was transparent, which allowed a technician to look around the shielding with a large mirror to check for sparking in the tube.
		With synchrotron radiation available at wavelengths in the x-ray region down to 0.1 Å, experimenters at DESY were able to carefully check the spectral distribution against Schwinger's theory, as well as begin absorption measurements of metals and alkali halides and of photoemission in aluminum.

	BNL/NASA Radiobiology Program
		Since astronauts are spending more time in space, they are receiving more exposure to ionizing radiation, a stream of particles that, when passing through a body, has enough energy to cause the atoms and molecules within that substance to become an ion.
		Although the spacecraft itself somewhat reduces radiation exposure, it does not completely shield astronauts from galactic cosmic rays, which are highly energetic heavy ions, or from solar particles, which primarily are energetic protons.
		In increasing knowledge of the effects of cosmic radiation, NSRL studies may expand the understanding of the link between ionizing radiation and aging or neuro-degeneration, as well as cancer.
