A -- LLNL SEEKS PARTNERS FOR PORTABLE RADIATION DETECTOR SOL CBD99-003 DUE 123098 POC Kevin O'Brien, obrien14@llnl.gov The Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) operated by The University of California, under contract with the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), is seeking companies interested in partnering with LLNL for the purpose of commercializing the Portable Radiation Detector. The Portable Radiation Detector contains an electromechanically cooled high purity germanium detector. The units have been deployed in the field and operating since April of 1997. Portability is one of the key benefits to the Portable Radiation Detector. It provides continuous, unattended operation. The unit is battery operated and has a unique active vibration damping that reduces mechanical vibration. It does not require the use of Liquid Nitrogen, while offering a longer life-time than other designs. The purpose of this announcement is to provide an opportunity for industrial partners to utilize and commercialize the system. All projects are conducted under policies of strict non-disclosure of company proprietary information. NOTE: THIS IS NOT A PROCUREMENT. If you are interested in working with LLNL on the Portable Radiation Detector, please respond in writing within 30 days of this announcement. Contact: Kevin O'Brien at obrien14@llnl.gov. List the subject as Partnering for Portable Radiation Detector. Posted 11/30/98 (W-SN275614). (0334)
