####### EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

During the summer of 2004, a series of radiobiological and physics
experiments were performed using the NASA Space Radiation Laboratory to
accelerate iron and proton beams (NSRL-3). These experiments were part
of the third NSRL scientific run sponsored by NASA's Space Radiation
Health Program (SRHP) heavy ion radiobiology research program at BNL.

A total of 24 proposals were approved by the BNL' SACR to participate in
the NSRL-3 run. Twenty institutions from the United States and 2 from
foreign countries (Japan and Italy) were represented, totaling 78 users.
More than 800 biological samples were exposed at the NSRL beam line,
employing 286 hours of beam time (40 hours for in vivo studies, 74.5
hours for in vitro studies and 66 hours for physics experiments). In
addition, 6 hours were used for beam development and, 93.5 hours for
set-up and dosimetry. A total of 6.5 hours of beam time were lost due to
accelerator related problems.

During NSRL-3, Booster provided iron (0.577 and 0.969 GeV/nucleon, LET:
176.1 and 151.1 keV/µm) and Protons (1 GeV/n, LET: 0.021 keV/µm) beams
for biology and physics experiments. The dose/rates used were as low as
0.1 cGy/min and as high as 2000 cGy/min. The spill rate employed was 20
for Fe, with duration of 400 msec/spill. The spill fluence was
(particles/spill) 3 x 10^9^ (max) and 500 (min). Square beam spots as
big as 20 x 20 cm and small as 1 x 1 cm was employed for biology and
physics experiments. For the first time Tandem-Booster-NSRL complex was
able to deliver a mix field composed by iron and protons with energies
of 1 GeV/n with a steady and repeatable switching from protons to iron.
The longest switching time was 7 minutes and the shortest was 1 minute.
The typical one was \~2 minutes. This new capability will offer more
realistic sample exposures using cells and animals eventually.

Tandem-Booster set-up started on June 6 with the transport and
circulation of p beams at the NSRL complex. Beam was tuned into cave on
June 7. 1000 MeV/n p beams were available for tuning on June 7. The next
several shifts were spent on beam characterization and dosimetry in
preparation of biological and physics experiments. Biology studies
started on the morning of June 8 using p beams (Cucinotta-Wu, NASA) and
proceeded through June 10. On June 11, AGS-Booster tuned 1 GeV/n iron
beams for biology and physics studies ending on June 23. From June 24 to
late June 26, NSRL delivered 0.6 GeV/n iron beams for a limited series
of biological experiments. On the early morning of June 28,
Tandem-Booster complex delivered iron ions and protons 1 GeV/n to test
fast delivery of mixed ions for physics and biology. A series of
biological experiments using mixed field were completed on the evening
of June 30 (B. Sutherland). NSRL-3 officially ended at 1900 pm, June 30,
2004.

One of the NSRL-4 highlights, was the commencement of the new NASA
sponsored Space Radiation Summer School on June 1, 2004. The school made
use of the NSRL facilities to train 11 students selected by NASA, in the
basic concepts of high-LET radiobiology and how to plan and execute an
experiment using NSRL. The students and faculty employed 13 hour of beam
time to expose cell, animals and detectors to iron ions.

**NSRL Mixed Field Test**

After several hours of preparations and set-up, A. Rusek and colleagues
were able to characterize the beams in order to maintain a steady and
repeatable state upon switching from protons to iron. The same
conditions were obtained for the iron to proton switch mode, but a more
conservative approach was taken by making sure protons were established
in the target area to satisfaction, and then put the sample in and
exposed it to protons. We then left the sample on the target stand,
switched to iron and delivered the desired dose to the sample. The
longest switch time was 7 minutes. The shortest was 1 minute. The
typical one was \~2 minutes. For each ion a separate setup file was
used, so the calibration can change appropriately with the change of
ions. So in fact, this was a mode switch of ALL systems involved, from
Tandem, through transfer lines, Booster, Extraction system, NSRL line
and dosimetry. Using this new tune, Dr. Sutherland was able to exposed
cell samples to different combinations of proton-iron sequences in order
to explore the biological effects of this mixed field. Results obtained
will expand the current NSRL capabilities in order to offer a unique
capability to simulate in a more realistic way the space environment.
