The Central Rocky Mountain Chapter of the Health Physics Society (CRMCHPS) met on 30 January 2025, and Marcia Anderson, CHP, gave a fantastic overview of accelerator health physics. Her talk included interesting information about a variety of accelerator types as well as multiple standards and references that provide useful support for any health physicist working with an accelerator. Marcia felt that ANSI Standard N43.1 (2011), "Radiation Safety for the Design and Operation of Particle Accelerators" was very well done and is essential to any type of particle accelerator. The talk was attended by both CRMCHPS members and members of the HPS student branch from Colorado State University.
