Bloomquist, Douglas D.; McDaniel, Dillon H.; McKee, George R.; Donovan, Guy L.; Weed, John W.; Faturos, Thomas V.; Tabor, Debra A.; Jordan, Carla M.

Sandia's Z Refurbishment (ZR) Project formally began in February 2002 to increase the Z Accelerator's utilization by providing the capability to perform more shots, improve precision and pulse shape variability, and increase delivered current. A project update was provided at the 15th International Pulsed Power Conference in 2005. The Z facility was shut down in July 2006 for structural/infrastructure modifications and installation of new pulsed power systems. The refurbishment will conclude in 2007. This paper provides a status update of the project covering the past 2 years of activities.
