Scientists have measured the highest toughness ever recorded, of any material, while investigating a metallic alloy made of chromium, cobalt, and nickel (CrCoNi). Not only is the metal extremely ductile — which, in materials science, means highly malleable — and impressively strong, its strength and ductility improve as it gets colder. This runs counter to most other materials in existence.

Last November, the National Energy Research Scientific Computing Center (NERSC) at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory launched its QIS@Perlmutter [...]

Indoor air quality is a concern in homes and workplaces around the world. Here are some practical and proven ways to improve it.

Enhanced capabilities at BELLA promise data on extreme plasmas, novel cancer treatments.

This collection of research looks at indoor air quality in schools and how pollutants can affect student health and academic performance.

Scientists at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) have demonstrated a new technique, modeled after a metabolic process found in some bacteria, for converting CO2 into liquid acetate, a key ingredient in “liquid sunlight” or solar fuels produced through artificial photosynthesis. The work, reported in a paper in Nature Catalysis,...

Trusted execution environments are changing the face of cloud computing -- and they will have an even bigger impact in the months and years ahead.

By 2033, more than 1 billion laptops, cellphones, and other electronic devices could be entering the U.S. waste stream each year.
