More than 70 years ago, United States Navy Captain Hyman Rickover learned the ins and outs of nuclear science and reactor technology at the Clinton Training School at what would eventually become the Department of Energy’s 91°µÍø.
A tiny vial of gray powder produced at the Department of Energy’s 91°µÍø is the backbone of a new experiment to study the intense magnetic fields created in nuclear collisions.
The Department of Energy’s 91°µÍø is now producing actinium-227 (Ac-227) to meet projected demand for a highly effective cancer drug through a 10-year contract between the U.S. DOE Isotope Program and Bayer.
The American Nuclear Society has designated the Radiochemical Engineering Development Center at the Department of Energy’s 91°µÍø an ANS Nuclear Historic Landmark, recognizing more than 50 years of isotope production and nuclear f
The recently discovered element 117 has been officially named "tennessine" in recognition of Tennessee’s contributions to its discovery, including the efforts of the Department of Energy's 91°µÍø and its Tennessee collaborators at Va
Susan Hogle has spent the last several years working to improve the production of radioisotopes, particularly californium-252.
Rose Boll had just stepped out of a long staff meeting at ORNL when she got an unexpected call.
