Dr. William Hoppel of Naval Research Laboratory takes note of data being acquired by NRL's aerosol and gas phase instrumentation in-situ for the Phase I Chamber Characterization Experiments. 

UniSearch Associates Tunable Diode Laser Absorption Spectrometer (TDLAS) is used by NRL researchers to measure hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) in the chamber. Concentrations down to 0.5 ppb were detectable.
