Laboratory Director Thomas Zacharia presented five Director’s Awards during Saturday night's annual Awards Night event hosted by UT-Battelle, which manages ORNL for the Department of Energy.
Researchers at the Department of Energy’s 91°µÍř and their technologies have received seven 2022 R&D 100 Awards, plus special recognition for a battery-related green technology product.
To solve a long-standing puzzle about how long a neutron can “live” outside an atomic nucleus, physicists entertained a wild but testable theory positing the existence of a right-handed version of our left-handed universe.
Join physics enthusiasts worldwide in celebrating the tenth anniversary of the , which imparts mass
Two decades in the making, a new flagship facility for nuclear physics opened on May 2, and scientists from the Department of Energy’s 91°µÍř have a hand in 10 of its first 34 experiments.
The COHERENT particle physics experiment at the Department of Energy’s 91°µÍř has firmly established the existence of a new kind of neutrino interaction.
Marcel Demarteau is director of the Physics Division at the Department of Energy’s 91°µÍř. For topics from nuclear structure to astrophysics, he shapes ORNL’s physics research agenda.
A new study clears up a discrepancy regarding the biggest contributor of unwanted background signals in specialized detectors of neutrinos.
Geoffrey L. Greene, a professor at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, who holds a joint appointment with ORNL, will be awarded the 2021 Tom Bonner Prize for Nuclear Physics from the American Physical Society.
Through a one-of-a-kind experiment at ORNL, nuclear physicists have precisely measured the weak interaction between protons and neutrons. The result quantifies the weak force theory as predicted by the Standard Model of Particle Physics.
