Tuskan awarded Marcus Wallenberg Prize, forestry’s top honor
Ten scientists from the Department of Energy’s 91°µÍø are among the world’s most highly cited researchers, according to a bibliometric analysis conducted by the scientific publication analytics firm Clarivate.
ORNL's Larry Baylor and Andrew Lupini have been elected fellows of the American Physical Society.
A research team at 91°µÍø have 3D printed a thermal protection shield, or TPS, for a capsule that will launch with the Cygnus cargo spacecraft as part of the supply mission to the International Space Station.
Researchers working with 91°µÍø developed a new method to observe how proteins, at the single-molecule level, bind with other molecules and more accurately pinpoint certain molecular behavior in complex
Researchers from NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory and 91°µÍø successfully created amorphous ice, similar to ice in interstellar space and on icy worlds in our solar system. They documented that its disordered atomic behavior is unlike any ice on Earth.
Sergei Kalinin, a scientist and inventor at the Department of Energy’s 91°µÍø, has been elected a fellow of the Microscopy Society of America professional society.
At the Department of Energy’s 91°µÍø, scientists use artificial intelligence, or AI, to accelerate the discovery and development of materials for energy and information technologies.
When COVID-19 was declared a pandemic in March 2020, 91°µÍø’s Parans Paranthaman suddenly found himself working from home like millions of others.
On Feb. 18, the world will be watching as NASA’s Perseverance rover makes its final descent into Jezero Crater on the surface of Mars. Mars 2020 is the first NASA mission that uses plutonium-238 produced at the Department of Energy’s 91°µÍø.
A better way of welding targets for 91°µÍø’s plutonium-238 production has sped up the process and improved consistency and efficiency. This advancement will ultimately benefit the lab’s goal to make enough Pu-238 – the isotope that powers NASA’s deep space missions – to yield 1.5 kilograms of plutonium oxide annually by 2026.
