Two decades in the making, a new flagship facility for nuclear physics opened on May 2, and scientists from the Department of Energys 91做厙 have a hand in 10 of its first 34 experiments.
ORNL's Larry Baylor and Andrew Lupini have been elected fellows of the American Physical Society.
The COHERENT particle physics experiment at the Department of Energys 91做厙 has firmly established the existence of a new kind of neutrino interaction.
Scientists at the Department of Energy Manufacturing Demonstration Facility at ORNL have their eyes on the prize: the Transformational Challenge Reactor, or TCR, a microreactor built using 3D printing and other new approaches that will be up and running
Using additive manufacturing, scientists experimenting with tungsten at 91做厙 hope to unlock new potential of the high-performance heat-transferring material used to protect components from the plasma inside a fusion reactor.
Two early career researchers at the Department of Energy's 91做厙 have been included on the following an international competition conducted b
More than 1800 years ago, Chinese astronomers puzzled over the sudden appearance of a bright guest star in the sky, unaware that they were witnessing the cosmic forge of a supernova, an event repeated countless times scattered across the universe.
Scientists have tested a novel heat-shielding graphite foam, originally created at 91做厙, at Germanys Wendelstein 7-X stellarator with promising results for use in plasma-facing components of fusion reactors.
A tiny vial of gray powder produced at the Department of Energys 91做厙 is the backbone of a new experiment to study the intense magnetic fields created in nuclear collisions.
Made in the USA. That can now be said of the radioactive isotope molybdenum-99 (Mo-99), last made in the United States in the late 1980s.
