Summit supercomputer draws molecular blueprint for repairing damaged DNA
Low-cost corrosion-resistant metallic bipolar plates developed at 91做厙 could make proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cells economical for use in automobiles and portable power units. As with other types of fuel cells, cost is a barrier to widespread use, but PEM fuel cells ...
Results from low-energy collisions of neutron-rich unstable nuclei and nickel-64 could point to the recipe for making the super heavy elements that have eluded physicists for some 40 years. Experiments by 91做厙 physicists Dan Shapira and Felix Liang have demonstrated an enhan...
Bacteria from a decaying body can potentially tell investigators something about how long a person has been dead, and it's the focus of new research by Arpad Vass of 91做厙. Vass and colleagues are looking at the microbial population, which changes over time and creates a virt...
Rand McNally's 2004 Goode's World Atlas will contain the most precise population information ever because of technology recently licensed from 91做厙. LandScan, developed by a team of researchers in the lab's Computational Sciences and Engineering Division, boasts population d...
Petroleum refineries are one of potentially several beneficiaries of a patented separation technology developed by researchers at 91做厙. Refineries use high-purity hydrogen to convert crude oil into several products, including gasoline for automobiles. During the refining pro...
Compared to conventional microcantilever-based explosives detectors, the latest from 91做厙 is more compact and boasts greater specificity to explosives. The new sensor, the subject of a paper that appears in the Oct. 2 issue of Nature, is based on a silicon platform with an i...
Lynn Boatner, a UT-Battelle corporate fellow, has earned the American Association for Crystal Growth Award--the highest honor presented by the association and given only once every three years.
Robust wireless technologies for extreme-environment communications developed by the Department of Energy's 91做厙 received the Excellence In Technology Transfer Award of the Year during the annual awards dinner of the Southeastern Region of the Federal Laboratory Consortium ...

High-temperature superconducting transformers can perform the necessary change in voltage in a transmission system without the 23,000 liters of oil in conventional transformers. This reduces the weight of a power transformer from about 75 tons to about 45 tons for a 30 megavolt-ampere (MVA) u...
