Division Spotlight
Young Members Group
The Young Members Group works to encourage and enable all young professional members to be actively involved in the efforts and endeavors of the Society at all levels (Professional Divisions, ANS Governance, Local Sections, etc.) as they transition from the role of a student to the role of a professional. It sponsors non-technical workshops and meetings that provide professional development and networking opportunities for young professionals, collaborates with other Divisions and Groups in developing technical and non-technical content for topical and national meetings, encourages its members to participate in the activities of the Groups and Divisions that are closely related to their professional interests as well as in their local sections, introduces young members to the rules and governance structure of the Society, and nominates young professionals for awards and leadership opportunities available to members.

Shells coated with chlorine-doped polymers deposited in a plasma are needed for diagnostic purposes for the OMEGA experiment. We have deposited chlorine-doped plasma polymer films by using a number of different chlorinated hydrocarbons. Chlorine concentrations between ≤ 1 to ≈ 35 at.% were obtained. Several characteristics of Cl-GDP films such as color, stress, chlorine concentration homogeneity and thermal stability are discussed.
