Traveling to Florida
Target Fabrication Meeting - 2010
We are off to Florida to attend a Target Fabrication Meeting with Diana. I am the official
Bag carrier and I have the honor of accompanying her to this meeting. After the meeting we
plan to do a brief tour of Florida.
During the meeting we were surprised as Diana was awards the "Larry Foreman Award"
The Larry Foreman award is presented to an individual who has made a substantive
contribution towards innovation and excellence in target fabrication. The recipient
in 2010 was Diana Schroen of General Atomics. Diana is based at Sandia National
Laboratories (SNL) and coordinates SNL's target production and development efforts.
The award recognizes Diana's technical contribution as a part of the team that developed
resorcinol-formaldehyde foam capsules, as well as her managerial and technical
skills producing the complex wire-array targets that are used by the Z Pulsed Power Facility
at SNL.
Diana retired in 2016 and was a Scientist with General Atomics, Sandia National Laboratories
