this is report is a written comment on the time-dependent lenses.

A set of experiments has been performed on the High-Current Experiment (HCX) facility at LBNL, in which the ion beam is allowed to collide with an end plate and thereby induce a copious supply of desorbed electrons. Through the use of combinations of biased and grounded electrodes positioned in between and downstream of the quadrupole magnets, the flow of electrons upstream into the magnets can be turned on or off. Properties of the resultant ion beam are measured under each condition. The experiment is modeled via a full three-dimensional, two species (electron and ion) particle simulation, as well as via reduced simulations (ions with appropriately chosen model electron cloud distributions, and a high-resolution simulation of the region adjacent to the end plate). The three-dimensional simulations are the first of their kind and the first to make use of a timestep-acceleration scheme that allows the electrons to be advanced with a timestep that is not small compared to the highest electron cyclotron period. The simulations reproduce qualitative aspects of the experiments, illustrate some unanticipated physical effects, and serve as an important demonstration of a developing simulation capability.

Atomic structure codes have a difficult time accurately calculating the wavelengths of many-electron ions without the benefit of laboratory measurements. This is especially true for wavelengths of lines in the extreme ultraviolet and soft x-ray regions. We are using the low-energy capability of the Livermore electron beam ion traps to compile a comprehensive catalog of astrophysically relevant emission lines in support of satellite x-ray observations. Our database includes wavelength measurements, relative intensities, and line assignments, and is compared to a full set of calculations using the Hebrew University - Lawrence Livermore Atomic Code (HULLAC). Mean deviation of HULLAC calculations from our measured wavelength values is highest for L-shell transitions of neon-like ions and lowest for lithium-like ions, ranging from a mean deviation of over 0.5 {angstrom} for Si V to 12 m{angstrom} in Ar XVI.

The working group on computational accelerator physics at the 11th Advanced Accelerator Concepts Workshop held a series of meetings during the Workshop. Verification, i.e., showing that a computational application correctly solves the assumed model, and validation, i.e., showing that the model correctly describes the modeled system, were discussed for a number of systems. In particular, the predictions of the massively parallel codes, OSIRIS and VORPAL, used for modeling advanced accelerator concepts, were compared and shown to agree, thereby establishing some verification of both codes. In addition, a number of talks on the status and frontiers of computational accelerator physics were presented, to include the modeling of ultrahigh-brightness electron photoinjectors and the physics of beam halo production. Finally, talks discussing computational needs were presented.

Congress has expressed interest in cruise missile defense for years. Cruise missiles (CMs) are essentially unmanned attack aircraft — vehicles composed of an airframe, propulsion system, guidance system, and weapons payload. The Department of Defense is pursuing several initiatives that seek to improve capabilities against an unpredictable cruise missile threat. These initiatives compete for funding and congressional attention.

A letter report issued by the Government Accountability Office with an abstract that begins "In 2003 GAO designated the merger of 22 separate federal entities into the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) as a high risk area because of the criticality of the department's mission and the enormous transformation challenges that the department faced. Given that the effective use of information technology (IT) is a critical enabler of this merger, GAO has previously reported on a number of DHS efforts aimed at institutionalizing an effective information and technology governance structure and investing in new IT systems that are intended to better support mission operations. Now that DHS has been operating for over a year, GAO was asked to, based largely on its prior work, describe DHS's progress in meeting its information and technology management challenge."

A letter report issued by the Government Accountability Office with an abstract that begins "The District of Columbia's Jail and Correctional Treatment Facility (CTF), which are the District's detention facilities for misdemeanant and pretrial detainees, have been repeatedly cited for violations of health and safety standards. The Jail also has had problems with releasing inmates before or after their official release date, in part, because of inaccuracies in its electronic inmate records. As a follow-on to problems at the Jail reported in 2002 by the District's Inspector General, GAO addressed the following questions: (1) What are the results of recent health and safety inspections? (2) What is the status of the Jail's capital improvement projects, and what policies and procedures does the Department of Corrections (DoC) use in managing the projects? and (3) What progress has been made in improving electronic inmate records at the Jail?"

A growing amount of concrete containing tritium is being generated as a result of ongoing demolition and destruction activities on the SRS. To assist in determining how much radioactive low level waste (such as the tritiated concrete) can be safely disposed, performance assessments are conducted. In the past, these calculations assumed that all the tritium associated with buried concrete existed on the exterior concrete surfaces. Although this is a conservative assumption with respect to the groundwater pathway, it is not accurate. The objective of this study was to more accurately model tritium release from concrete rubble. Particular attention was directed at incorporating tritium diffusion from the concrete rubble into the surrounding groundwater.
