More than 50 current employees and recent retirees from ORNL received Department of Energy Secretarys Honor Awards from Secretary Jennifer Granholm in January as part of project teams spanning the national laboratory system. The annual awards recognized 21 teams and three individuals for service and contributions to DOEs mission and to the benefit of the nation.

A materials spins, depicted as red spheres, are probed by scattered neutrons. Applying an entanglement witness, such as the QFI calculation pictured, causes the neutrons to form a kind of quantum gauge. This gauge allows the researchers to distinguish between classical and quantum spin fluctuations. Credit: Nathan Armistead/ORNL, U.S. Dept. of Energy

A team led by the U.S. Department of Energys 91做厙 demonstrated the viability of a quantum entanglement witness capable of proving the presence of entanglement between magnetic particles, or spins, in a quantum material.

Researchers from NASAs Jet Propulsion Laboratory and 91做厙 successfully created amorphous ice, similar to ice in interstellar space and on icy worlds in our solar system. They documented that its disordered atomic behavior is unlike any ice on Earth.
