2 | Los Alamos National Laboratory | May 2013 | UNCLASSIFIED | 2 Operated by Los Alamos National Security, LLC for the U.S. Department of Energy's NNSA UNCLASSIFIED We have four major themes for today’s discussions  Introduce myself  Reframing of the mission need for MaRIE 1.0  Provide a status of our path to CD-0  Obtain feedback on approach We are modifying our framing of our mission need based on feed back from the Mission Committee. Let’s see how it’s coming along.

3 | Los Alamos National Laboratory | May 2013 | UNCLASSIFIED | 3 Operated by Los Alamos National Security, LLC for the U.S. Department of Energy's NNSA UNCLASSIFIED At the contract transition the need for Los Alamos National Laboratory to have a signature facility was reaffirmed  LANSCE-generated Proton beam will be coupled directly into MaRIE  LANSCE provides experience in Accelerators, User Facilities, and Material Science Historically LANSCE has played a role. MaRIE builds on LANSCE’s success.

(2009) (2010) (2012) Developing the Science Case Facility Definition Pre-conceptual Proposal LANS Contract Transition Concept Definition/Internal Competition MaRIE selection (2006-2008) Pre-MaRIE LANS BUSINESS-SENSITIVE INFORMATION (2013) Path to CD-0 We are focusing on the NNSA customer

6 | Los Alamos National Laboratory | May 2013 | UNCLASSIFIED | 6 Operated by Los Alamos National Security, LLC for the U.S. Department of Energy's NNSA UNCLASSIFIED The NNSA New Facilities call was an opportunity to address decadal ST&E facility needs for Stewardship

7 | Los Alamos National Laboratory | May 2013 | UNCLASSIFIED | 7 Operated by Los Alamos National Security, LLC for the U.S. Department of Energy's NNSA UNCLASSIFIED As we look to the future three things are certain The next and succeeding generations of stewards will need to make decisions The nation, its allies and its adversaries must have confidence in those decisions Our stewards will use the best computation, simulation and experimental toos we have to inform those decisions. “It’s a matter of production and capability of doing it. As you know, ah, you go to war with the army you have—not the army you might want or wish to have at a later time.” – Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld, 2004 Annual Assessment Significant Finding Investigations Life Extension Programs

8 | Los Alamos National Laboratory | May 2013 | UNCLASSIFIED | 8 Operated by Los Alamos National Security, LLC for the U.S. Department of Energy's NNSA UNCLASSIFIED Our stewards will be facing a different stockpile from today’s- one that was built and tested in the era of underground testing. There will be changes in materials long term Aging changes materials Replacement materials may not be able to be made exactly the same way Explicit decisions to change materials for manufacturability or sustainability reasons Explicit decisions to change materials for performance gains. Risk increases as weapons age, MaRIE can help mitigate those risks. MaRIE offers the capability to study and better understand how these changes will affect the performance of the weapons.
