Neil Koone is a physics advisor and Technical Fellow at the Pantex Plant, specializing in electromagnetics. While his main focus at Pantex has been in lightning protection, he also assists in other areas, including electrostatic discharge, radio frequency emissions, and the electrical equipment approval process. Koone also has experience in non-electromagnetic areas, including automating data analysis for high energetic applications. He started his career as a physics professor in the University System of Georgia. He also taught at the University of Texas at Tyler and served at Bell Helicopter-Textron Inc. in the Electromagnetic Compatibility and Lightning Factors Group. Koone holds a Ph.D. in physics from Texas Christian University, an M.S. in physics from the University of North Texas, and a B.S. in astronomy and physics from Texas Christian University.

Lorelei Woods is a core engineering advisor at the Pantex Plant. She works in the areas of spectrometry, chromatography, ultra-high vacuum systems, and accelerated environmental aging studies. She has 35 years of experience in the areas of magnetic sector mass specs and is highly regarded for her knowledge with the instruments and leads an enterprise-wide technical group. She is a Pantex Technical Fellow, prior member of National Nuclear Security Administration’s (NNSA) Network of Senior Scientists and Engineers, and is frequently consulted by other NNSA sites concerning the operation of magnetic sector mass spectrometers.
