New exhibit opens at Bradbury Science Museum

April 30, 2008

LANSCE proton accelerator

The new Los Alamos Neutron Science Center exhibit, which opened Monday at the Bradbury Science Museum, includes a 12-foot full-color illustration describing how the LANSCE proton accelerator works; a fully interactive touch-screen station that offers three different interactive games for visitors, including the super-popular Drift Tube Game; and a series of light boxes that describe LANSCE's contribution to science and the world.

The interactive touch-screen exhibit was developed by a LANSCE liaison team in collaboration with Harvey Mudd College. It was designed and built by a team comprised of five undergraduate students.
