The U.S. nuclear triad of heavy bombers, intercontinental-range ballistic missiles (ICBMs), and submarine-launched ballistic missiles (SLBMs) is aging.
Los Alamos study hopes to characterize and optimize ventilator treatment for COVID-19
Scientists and Engineers use computer modeling and experimental fluid mechanics to understand how tiny aerosol particles, when pulsed into the lung, may break up disease-related mucus and improve gas exchange

LOS ALAMOS, N.M., December 21, 2020 Cross-disciplinary scientists and engineers at Los Alamos National Laboratory are working to learn how Intrapulmonary Percussive Ventilation (IPV) helps clear mucus from blocking the airways of the human lung, a common reaction to the Covid-19 virus.

Los Alamos study hopes to characterize and optimize ventilator treatment for Covid-19
LOS ALAMOS, N.M., Dec. 21, 2020 Cross-disciplinary scientists and engineers at Los Alamos National Laboratory are working to learn how Intrapulmonary Percussive Ventilation (IPV) helps clear mucus from blocking the airways of the human lung, a common reaction to the Covid-19 virus.
Researchers, using some of the same modeling and experimental techniques from the Laboratory’s nuclear weapons mission, are working to discover the underlying science and engineering principles behind this process and have developed a preliminary machine learning algorithm that could someday assist pulmonary doctors in treating Covid-19 patients with IPV.
imploding. would it surprise you to know the same newt gingrich was paid more than $1.5 million to help freddie mac make friends. i was glad to offer strategic advice. we did it for a number of companies. the group was very successful. grinning rich sees no conflict. his critics see hypocrisy. we begin with breaking news. a new judge will preside over the case of new penn state football coach jerry sandusky, this change prompted by complaints the first tie had ties to the charity second mile. new changes about whether the changing story of a key witness jeopardizes the criminal case against sandusky who is accused of raping at least eight young boys. the mother of one of sandusky s alleged victims says she s sickened he s free on bail and sickened to broadcast an interview in which he proclaims he does nothing wrong. it makes me really sad my son can t go out and have a normal life, he can t go hang out at the hall because he might run integerry. he gets to go to th
nuclear power and right now, i think iran s moving forward and the rest of the world is basically not doing anything that will change their behavior. now, what about the s.t.a.r.t. treaty? you said you have concerns about it. one of the things you said is that you re not sure about the weapons modernization. secretary gates believes there is adequate money for modernization and testing with the national labs. you know the defense appropriation better than anyone, so what doubts do you have about the ability of our nuclear stockpile to be kept you want to date as you look at this treaty? i hope i can support ratification of the s.t.a.r.t. trea treaty, but i m not there yet. the basic idea that we would reduce the nuclear warheads in the world is of course, a
