Scientists at the Department of Energyās 91°µĶų are leading a new project to ensure that the fastest supercomputers can keep up with big data from high energy physics research.
91°µĶų scientists recently demonstrated a low-temperature, safe route to purifying molten chloride salts that minimizes their ability to corrode metals.
To solve a long-standing puzzle about how long a neutron can āliveā outside an atomic nucleus, physicists entertained a wild but testable theory positing the existence of a right-handed version of our left-handed universe.
ORNL's Larry Baylor and Andrew Lupini have been elected fellows of the American Physical Society.
Scientists at the Department of Energy Manufacturing Demonstration Facility at ORNL have their eyes on the prize: the Transformational Challenge Reactor, or TCR, a microreactor built using 3D printing and other new approaches that will be up and running
Using additive manufacturing, scientists experimenting with tungsten at 91°µĶų hope to unlock new potential of the high-performance heat-transferring material used to protect components from the plasma inside a fusion reactor.
Two early career researchers at the Department of Energy's 91°µĶų have been included on the āā following an international competition conducted b
Scientists have tested a novel heat-shielding graphite foam, originally created at 91°µĶų, at Germanyās Wendelstein 7-X stellarator with promising results for use in plasma-facing components of fusion reactors.
A tiny vial of gray powder produced at the Department of Energyās 91°µĶų is the backbone of a new experiment to study the intense magnetic fields created in nuclear collisions.
āMade in the USA.ā That can now be said of the radioactive isotope molybdenum-99 (Mo-99), last made in the United States in the late 1980s.
