A collaborative research team has confirmed quantum spin liquid behavior in the material KYbSe2, validating a decades-old hypothesis. This breakthrough, significant for quantum computing and superconductor development, was achieved using advanced neutron scattering techniques and computational analy

Little of the mixed consumer plastics thrown away or placed in recycle bins actually ends up being recycled.

By employing neutrons to observe the additive manufacturing process at the atomic level, scientists have successfully demonstrated their ability to measure strain in a material as it undergoes changes and monitor the atomic movements in response to stress.

<p>The Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory, a bastion of nuclear physics research for the past 80 years, is poised to strengthen its programs and service to the United States over the next decade if national recommendations of the Nuclear Science Advisory Committee, or NSAC, are enacted.</p>

Seven entrepreneurs will embark on a two-year fellowship as the seventh cohort of Innovation Crossroads kicks off this month at the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory. Representing a range of transformative energy technologies, Cohort 7 is a diverse class of innovators with promising new companies.

ORNL's Proton Power Upgrade will continue to push the particle acclerator's beam power up to 2.8 megawatts.

Over the past decade, teams of engineers, chemists and biologists have analyzed the physical and chemical properties of cicada wings, hoping to unlock the [...]

Shortly after it launche its full-scale invasion, Russia seized the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant and turned it into a military base, from which it now threatens a fresh man-made catastrophe.

The Spallation Neutron Source (earlier post) at the Department of Energys Oak Ridge National Laboratory set a world record when its linear accelerator reached an operating power of 1.55 megawatts, which improves on the facility’s original design capability. The accelerator’s higher power provides more neutrons for researchers who use the...
