Nina Andrejevic creates better tools to quickly characterize materials

DOE/Argonne National Laboratory

Understanding big datasets requires better analytical models, says the Maria Goeppert Mayer Fellow.

What is quantum squeezing?

DOE/Argonne National Laboratory

Scientists exploit a property of quantum physics to make ultraprecise sensors and measurements.

Argonne’s Advanced Photon Source to accelerate biological and environmental research

DOE/Argonne National Laboratory

A new DOE-funded program called eBERlight will expand biological and environmental research at the Advanced Photon Source.

PNNL collaborates with Microsoft, Micron to bring computational chemistry to the masses

DOE/Pacific Northwest National Laboratory

PNNL is collaborating with Microsoft, Micron and other partners to make computational chemistry broadly available.

Urban climate research project helps shape minority students’ science identity

DOE/Argonne National Laboratory

An Urban Integrated Field Laboratory led by Argonne is focusing on creating a diverse next generation workforce and involving students in tackling future urban climate challenges.

From atomic nuclei to astrophysics, collaborative program builds basis for scientific discoveries

DOE/Oak Ridge National Laboratory

Oak Ridge National Laboratory is leading two nuclear physics research projects within the Scientific Discovery through Advanced Computing, or SciDAC, program from the Department of Energy Office of Science. One of the projects is called Nuclear Computational Low-Energy Initiative, or NUCLEI. The other is Exascale Nuclear Astrophysics for FRIB, or ENAF. FRIB refers to the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams, a DOE-supported research, teaching and training center located at Michigan State University.

Jim Sebek wins 2023 Lytle Award for decades of synchrotron problem solving and dedication

DOE/SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory

Jim Sebek, an electrical engineer and physicist at the Stanford Synchrotron Radiation Lightsource (SSRL) at the Department of Energy’s SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory, will receive this year’s Farrel W. Lytle Award for countless contributions towards building, maintaining and operating the synchrotron for nearly four decades.

Reduced nitrogen oxide emissions from industrial vehicles ahead

DOE/Pacific Northwest National Laboratory

A new discovery by PNNL researchers has illuminated a previously unknown key mechanism that could inform the development of new, more effective catalysts for abating NOx emissions from combustion-engines burning diesel or low carbon fuel.
