The Center for Bioenergy Innovation, or CBI, at the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory has promoted Melissa Cregger and Carrie Eckert to serve as chief science officers, advancing ...

A team of researchers from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology used Frontier to chart the isospin density of a neutron ...

What we need are people, like you, who are exposed to and motivated by the fundamental ideas of quantum science to pioneer new approaches, new applications and new domains that we haven’t even thought ...

The method fills in crucial gaps by creating dynamic visualizations that allow scientists to observe how domain walls move and better estimate how much energy is required to shift them. It turns a ...

Scientists at Oak Ridge National Laboratory have developed a vacuum-assisted extrusion method that reduces internal porosity — by up to 75% — in large-scale 3D-printed polymer parts. Large-format ...

In an autonomous chemistry laboratory on Oak Ridge National Laboratory’s main campus, a mobile robot shuttles between workstations, most of which have their own robots. Guided by advanced artificial ...

During his first visit to Oak Ridge National Laboratory, Energy Secretary Chris Wright compared the urgency of the lab’s World War II beginnings to today’s global race to lead in artificial ...

Ever since physicist Ernest Rutherford discovered the atomic nucleus in 1911, studying its structure and behavior has remained a challenging task. More than a century later, even with today’s ...

ORNL’s invention may change plastic’s environmental fate by rearranging polymeric building blocks to customize the properties of plastics. Molecular subunits link to produce polymer chains that can ...

Yesterday’s polluting fuel could be transformed into a valuable material for tomorrow’s electric vehicle batteries, thanks to a wide-ranging research project that utilizes expertise spanning the ...

A team of scientists with two Department of Energy Bioenergy Research Centers — the Center for Bioenergy Innovation, or CBI, at Oak Ridge National Laboratory and the Center for Advanced Bioenergy and ...

A chemical reaction can convert two polluting greenhouse gases into valuable building blocks for cleaner fuels and feedstocks, but the high temperature required for the reaction also deactivates the ...
