Electrolytes that convert chemical to electrical energy underlie the search for new power sources with zero emissions. Among these new power sources are fuel cells that produce electricity.

Scientists at ORNL used neutrons to end a decades-long debate about an enzyme cancer uses.

Using LEGOĀ® bricks, Robert Saethre has worked to create a model of the ring injection region of the SNS pulsed accelerator that features the new Proton Power Upgrade magnets and vacuum chambers.

Scientists at ORNL have developed 3-D-printed collimator techniques that can be used to custom design collimators that better filter out noise during different types of neutron scattering experiments


Researchers have long thought that formation of insoluble fibrous āstringsā of self-assembling proteins might be involved in the progression of a number of diseases, including neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimerās and Parkinsonās. However, recent evidence suggests that aggregates that develop at an earlier stage than fibril formation, and accumulate in human organs, may be the primary toxic agents.
