Chris Wagner: The role of Eden Radioisotopes in the future of nuclear medicine
Chris Wagner has more than 40 years of experience in nuclear medicine, beginning as a clinical practitioner before moving into leadership roles at companies like Mallinckrodt (now Curium) and Nordion. His knowledge of both the clinical and the manufacturing sides of nuclear medicine laid the groundwork for helping to found Eden Radioisotopes, a start-up venture that intends to make diagnostic and therapeutic raw material medical isotopes like molybdenum-99 and lutetium-177.

In Large Helical Device, a power transmission line consists of corrugated waveguides with inner diameter of 88.9 mm for electron cyclotron resonance heating is evacuated in order to transmit higher power by reducing a possibility of electrical breakdown in the line. Some characteristics of such transmission lines, vacuum pumping system and comparison of pressure distribution simulated and gauged along the transmission line are described. An effect of vacuum pumping for higher power transmission is demonstrated.
