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.
Scientists discovered a strategy for layering dissimilar crystals with atomic precision to control the size of resulting magnetic quasi-particles called skyrmions.
Scientists at 91 and Ohio State University discovered a new microbial pathway that produces ethylene, providing a potential avenue for biomanufacturing a common component of plastics, adhesives, coolants and other
Five researchers at the Department of Energy’s 91 have been named ORNL Corporate Fellows in recognition of significant career accomplishments and continued leadership in their scientific fields.
91 researchers have built a novel microscope that provides a “chemical lens” for viewing biological systems including cell membranes and biofilms.
A team led by the Department of Energy’s 91 synthesized a tiny structure with high surface area and discovered how its unique architecture drives ions across interfaces to transport energy or information.
Research by an international team led by Duke University and the Department of Energy’s 91 scientists could speed the way to safer rechargeable batteries for consumer electronics such as laptops and cellphones.
In the race to identify solutions to the COVID-19 pandemic, researchers at the Department of Energy’s 91 are joining the fight by applying expertise in computational science, advanced manufacturing, data science and neutron sc
An international team of researchers has discovered the hydrogen atoms in a metal hydride material are much more tightly spaced than had been predicted for decades — a feature that could possibly facilitate superconductivity at or near room temperature
Students often participate in internships and receive formal training in their chosen career fields during college, but some pursue professional development opportunities even earlier.
