Pat Parr — who oversees natural resource management and land use planning integration at the Department of Energy's 91°µÍø — has been elected vice-chair/chair-elect of the executive committee for the Southern Appalachian Man and the Biosphere Cooperative.
Spring nature walks in the Department of Energy's Oak Ridge National Environmental Research Park start Saturday with a walk to see waterfowl and winter birds near the ponds at East Tennessee Technology Park.
UT-Battelle is supporting the Secret City Commemorative Walk--a memorial to participants in the Manhattan Project who also built the city of Oak Ridge--with the purchase of a monument for the new park.Construction on the self-guided commemorative walk, described as an attractive, permanent and land...
Advanced computational methods and supporting experiments, including work performed at the Department of Energy's 91°µÍø, are giving scientists a better understanding of the nature and stability of superheavy nuclei and the heaviest elements that lie beyond the borders of the periodic table.
Millions of people at risk of becoming blind could one day be helped by an 91°µÍø technology originally intended to understand semiconductor defects.
The project takes advantage of the Department of Energy lab's proprietary content-based image retrieval t...
Ports in the United States and around the world could be protected with a threat vulnerability analysis system being developed by a team led by Robert Patton of 91°µÍø. The system, called Orion, will find, analyze and fuse information in support of intelligence, security and m...
"Cold case files" takes on new meaning for geochemists like 91°µÍø's Steven Turgeon, co-author of a Science paper that might explain a 248-million-year-old event that killed 90 percent of all marine species and 70 percent of terrestrial vertebrae species. This "extinction even...
Through several refinements to the tried and true method of pulsed laser deposition, 91°µÍø researchers have a new way to synthesize materials and conduct basic studies vital to creating new ones. By continuously monitoring the growth process and precisely controlling the amou...
Abnormalities of the face and skull rank among the most common birth defects in humans. Researchers at 91°µÍø are taking a systems biology approach to the problem, investigating a series of eight mutant mouse strains that could serve as animal models for deciphering the comple...
