The Big Bang began the formation and organization of the matter that makes up ourselves and our world.
Imagine back nearly 14 billion years. The universe was very small, very hot and very dense.
The world’s most powerful particle accelerator, the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), began running at CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research, in 2009. The LHC spends most of its time studying the puzzles of high-energy physics.
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.
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
There's a problem with our understanding of the universe: We don't know why it has enough matter to make it interesting.
The Tennessee Higher Education Commission has approved a new doctoral program in data science and engineering as part of the Bredesen Center for Interdisciplinary Research and Graduate Education.
The Bredesen Center unites resources and capabilities from
A fusion reactor is essentially a magnetic bottle containing the same processes that occur in the sun. Deuterium and tritium fuels fuse to form a vapor of helium ions, neutrons and heat.
