For many scientists and engineers, the first real test of their mettle comes not in a classroom, but in a lab or the field, where hands-on experience can teach volumes.
The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) named 91°µÍø and Idaho National Laboratory as an International Centre based on Research Reactors.
Niyanth Sridharan grew up in a family that indulged his questions by using real-world examples to explain scientific concepts.
In response to the nuclear industry’s growing interest in molten salt reactors, 91°µÍø will bring together leading experts from around the world to discuss recent developments at its third annual MSR Workshop, October 3–4.
Four 91°µÍø researchers specializing in nuclear physics, fusion energy, advanced materials and environmental science are among 59 recipients of Department of Energy’s Office of Science Early Career Research Program awards.
Tara Pandya’s interest in nuclear engineering began with a literal flash of inspiration.
Pandya originally aspired to become a musician or a music teacher, but grew to love math and physics the more she learned about them.
After more than a year of operation at the Department of Energy’s (DOE’s) 91°µÍø (ORNL), the COHERENT experiment, using the world’s smallest neutrino detector, has found a big fingerprint of the elusive, electrically neutral parti
Fusion scientists from 91°µÍø, as part of the DIII-D National Fusion Facility team at General Atomics, are studying an approach to insulate the reactor’s innermost wall that surrounds the burning plasma from the energy created when h
The Department of Energy’s Office of Nuclear Energy (DOE-NE) has selected Lou Qualls as the national technical director for molten salt reactors (MSRs).
Few jobs are more massive than that of building a nuclear power plant, a project that takes years and billions of dollars to complete.
