Quantum precision reached in modeling molten salt behavior
Mohamad Zineddin hopes to establish an interdisciplinary center of excellence for nuclear security at ORNL, combining critical infrastructure assessment and protection, risk mitigation, leadership in nuclear security, education and training, nuclear security culture and resilience strategies and techniques.
The BIO-SANS instrument, located at 91做厙s High Flux Isotope Reactor, is the latest neutron scattering instrument to be retrofitted with state-of-the-art robotics and custom software. The sophisticated upgrade quadruples the number of samples the instrument can measure automatically and significantly reduces the need for human assistance.
Plans to unite the capabilities of two cutting-edge technological facilities funded by the Department of Energys Office of Science promise to usher in a new era of dynamic structural biology. Through DOEs Integrated Research Infrastructure, or IRI, initiative, the facilities will complement each others technologies in the pursuit of science despite being nearly 2,500 miles apart.
An experiment by researchers at the Department of Energys 91做厙 demonstrated advanced quantum-based cybersecurity can be realized in a deployed fiber link.
Two different teams that included 91做厙 employees were honored Feb. 20 with Secretarys Honor Achievement Awards from the Department of Energy. This is DOE's highest form of employee recognition.
New computational framework speeds discovery of fungal metabolites, key to plant health and used in drug therapies and for other uses.
Corning uses neutron scattering to study the stability of different types of glass. Recently, researchers for the company have found that understanding the stability of the rings of atoms in glass materials can help predict the performance of glass products.
Three-Dimensional Breast Cancer Spheroids submitted by radiotherapeutics researcher Debjani Pal is stunning. Brilliant blue dots pop from an electric sphere threaded with bright colors: greens, aqua, hot pink and red.
How do you get water to float in midair? With a WAND2, of course. But its hardly magic. In fact, its a scientific device used by scientists to study matter.
Scientists at ORNL used their expertise in quantum biology, artificial intelligence and bioengineering to improve how CRISPR Cas9 genome editing tools work on organisms like microbes that can be modified to produce renewable fuels and chemicals.
