Creating quantum connections: Workshop brings together quantum networking experts from around the world

DOE/Argonne National Laboratory

In the future, quantum computers and sensors are expected to be distributed around the globe, and they will need to be connected through a quantum version of the internet. At a recent workshop, researchers discussed paths to building a quantum network.

Interns boost careers at PNNL

DOE/Pacific Northwest National Laboratory

In honor of National Intern Day, PNNL and intern Jonathan Mills were named among the Top 100 in the nation by early-career recruiting firm WayUp.

Propelling wind energy innovation

DOE/Sandia National Laboratories

Motivated by the need to eliminate expensive rare-earth magnets in utility-scale direct-drive wind turbines, Sandia National Laboratories researchers developed a fundamentally new type of rotary electrical contact. Sandia is now ready to partner with the renewable energy industry to develop the next generation of direct-drive wind turbines.

New superconducting qubit testbed benefits quantum information science development

DOE/Pacific Northwest National Laboratory

A new testbed facility capable of testing superconducting qubit fidelity in a controlled environment free of stray background radiation will benefit quantum information sciences and the development of quantum computing.

Argonne research to help US achieve net-zero carbon emissions goal

DOE/Argonne National Laboratory

The national laboratory is focusing research and expertise toward critical new carbon dioxide removal technologies.

Powered by artificial intelligence, Argonne technology eyes bird activity at solar facilities

DOE/Argonne National Laboratory

The World Health Organization says monkeypox is a global health emergency. Scientists use ultrabright X-ray beams and diffraction imagery to understand how poxviruses behave. This can accelerate development of critical vaccines and treatments for monkeypox and other poxviruses.
