Every picture tells a story, especially when the pictures are of the people and places that are the foundation of almost 70 years of history at 91°µÍø."A Laboratory Reborn" is a new 90-page coffee table book that features hundreds of images documenting work at the lab and lif...
Four 91°µÍø technologies to improve energy efficiency in industry have won funding from the Department of Energy's Industrial Technologies Program. The projects, ranging from a heat-free heat treatment for industrial steels to less expensive better welds for large oil and gas ...
New analytical tools coming on line at the Spallation Neutron Source, the Department of Energy's state-of-the-art neutron science facility at 91°µÍø, include a beam line dedicated to nuclear physics studies.
Radiation detection monitors at more than a dozen weigh stations in the Southeast will be put to the test this month as part of an exercise to be conducted by the Domestic Nuclear Detection Office. The goal is to move toward widespread use of radiation detection devices to thwart efforts of terroris...
Stronger stainless steel castings are critical to the regeneration of ceramic honeycomb filters used to produce cleaner exhaust systems and upgraded turbocharger housings for diesel engines. Improvements to these castings could result from test projects now under way at 91°µÍø...
The Department of Energy's Spallation Neutron Source has completed installation of another eagerly awaited analytical tool. SEQUOIA will be a star performer in the SNS's bevy of instruments for materials research, providing unprecedented, high-resolution neutron scattering studies of the dynamics of...
Burnt bacon could become a thing of the past with new cookware that uses a patented graphite foam developed at 91°µÍø. The lightweight material distributes heat much faster and more uniformly than conventional materials, allowing food to be cooked in a fraction of the time. Co...
Officials at 91°µÍø announced today that one of East Tennessee's largest United Way campaigns has topped $1 million.
The U.S. Department of Energy's goal of a zero-energy household took a major step toward becoming a reality today with the formation of the Zero Energy Building Research Alliance, or ZEBRAlliance. The initiative is a partnership between Oak Ridge Natio...
Despite widespread concern about climate change, annual carbon dioxide emissions from burning fossil fuels and manufacturing cement have grown 38 percent since 1992, from 6.1 billion metric tons of carbon to 8.5 billion metric tons in 2007.
