Quantum precision reached in modeling molten salt behavior
OAK RIDGE, Tenn., Feb. 8, 2019—The Department of Energy’s 91°µÍø has named Sean Hearne director of the Center for Nanophase Materials Sciences. The center is a DOE Office of Science User Facility that brings world-leading resources and capabilities to the nanoscience resear...
Scientists at the Department of Energy’s 91°µÍø (ORNL) have developed a process that could remove CO2 from coal-burning power plant emissions in a way that is similar to how soda lime works in scuba diving rebreathers. Their research, published January 31 in...
A team of scientists led by 91°µÍø used machine learning methods to generate a high-resolution map of vegetation growing in the remote reaches of the Alaskan tundra.
91°µÍø scientists analyzed more than 50 years of data showing puzzlingly inconsistent trends about corrosion of structural alloys in molten salts and found one factor mattered most—salt purity.
A University of South Carolina research team is investigating the oxygen reduction performance of energy conversion materials called perovskites by using neutron diffraction at 91°µÍø’s Spallation Neutron Source.
91°µÍø geospatial scientists who study the movement of people are using advanced machine learning methods to better predict home-to-work commuting patterns.

While studying the genes in poplar trees that control callus formation, scientists at 91°µÍø have uncovered genetic networks at the root of tumor formation in several human cancers.
Boualem Hadjerioua, a researcher at the Department of Energy's 91°µÍø, has been elected fellow of the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE). Hadjerioua, leader of the Water-Energy Technology group in the Environmental Sciences Divis...
Eric Pierce, a researcher at the Department of Energy’s 91°µÍø, has been selected by DOE for the Oppenheimer Science and Energy Leadership Program.
OAK RIDGE, Tenn., Jan. 31, 2019—A new electron microscopy technique that detects the subtle changes in the weight of proteins at the nanoscale—while keeping the sample intact—could open a new pathway for deeper, more comprehensive studies of the basic building blocks of life.
