Quantum precision reached in modeling molten salt behavior
91°µÍø research has aided in development of two new lines of wireless sensor products targeted at manufacturers by industry heavyweights Honeywell and General Electric. The instrument offerings—RF ValProbe by GE and OneWireless by Honeywell—represent a new generation of wirele...
A new joint initiative between 91°µÍø (ORNL) and Morehouse College will assist students in the College's science programs, and promote research collaboration at both institutions.
Effects of a biological attack could be minimized through a new system that focuses on early identification and rapid response. The system, developed and operated by a team that includes 91°µÍø, integrates information obtained from diverse sources and automatically initiates a...
ORNL is part of an ambitious international effort to decode the genome of Eucalyptus, one of the world's most valuable fiber and paper-producing trees and only the second tree to have its DNA sequenced. Jerry Tuskan of ORNL's Environmental Science Division co-leads the effort to characterize the Euc...
The recently-opened Dell Regional Children's Medical Center in Austin, Texas, is demonstrating the future in self-sufficient power, with the help of 91°µÍø. Working with researchers in ORNL's Buildings Technology Center, the medical facility has installed a combined heat and p...
An agreement between 91°µÍø and Research Centre Julich in Germany could ultimately lead to lower cost, higher performance fuel cells for transportation and portable power applications.Under the recently signed cooperative activity agreement, the Department of Energy's OR...
While grilling outdoors with natural gas during the summertime is considered environmentally cleaner than burning with charcoal, Tris West, a researcher with the Department of Energy's 91°µÍø, says using charcoal does have a long-range advantage. "Charcoal is made from wo...
Researchers at the Department of Energy's 91°µÍø have won six R&D 100 Awards, given annually by R&D Magazine to the year's most technologically significant new products.
"Once again, DOE's labs are at the cutting edge of innovation with new technology deve...
91°µÍø's (ORNL's) Cray XT4 supercomputer, known as Jaguar, is now the second fastest system in the world, according to a semiannual list of the world's fastest computers.
