The Panel is one of our most effective means of technical peer review by counterparts in the scientific and engineering communities of U.S. industry and academe. Each panel member is selected by the National Research Council on the basis of expertise and extensive experience in the areas of research and technology conducted by the Laboratory. In addition to this Laboratory-wide Panel, the authors also have an Assessment Panel for the NIST Center for Neutron Research (NCNR). The 1997 Annual Report was organized to assist the NAS-NAE-NRC Board on Assessment and is intended to be used as background information at the annual review meeting. This report provides general information about MSEL in addition to describing the activities, accomplishments, output and impacts of MSEL during the period of Fiscal Year 1997 (October 1, 1996, to September 30, 1997). 收起
