The first of its kind superconducting linear particle accelerator (LINAC) built for the Spallation Neutron Source (SNS) at the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory is now celebrating 10 years of successful operations.
The world-leading machine, which took 7 years...
As a boy growing up in China, Xiaobing Liu knew all about Oak Ridge and the World War II Manhattan Project. He had no idea that he would one day work at DOE’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory, the Secret City’s successor. Liu is a lead researcher in geothermal heat pump (GHP) techn...
By exploiting some exotic quantum states, researchers have conceptually designed a sensor that features unparalleled sensitivity. In a paper published in Physical Review A, Ali Passian of Oak Ridge National Laboratory and George Siopsis of the University of Tennessee describe ...
The development and maturation of automated data tools for cancer research, part of the objectives outlined in the White House’s Cancer Moonshot initiative, could give medical researchers and policymakers an unprecedented view of the U.S. cancer population—at a level of detail typi...
Oak Ridge National Laboratory researchers have produced the next generation of the National Hydropower Map – a visualization tool that provides updated statistics on overall capacity and performance on the nation’s hydropower fleet. The map is part of the lab’s National Hydropower ...
Researchers at Oak Ridge National Laboratory have further validated the accuracy of the ORNL-developed Autotune building energy model calibration software, an open source system that can inform contractors to make smarter retrofit decisions. Through two case studies, the research t...
A multi-institution team led by Jefferson Lab’s Robert Edwards has been using Oak Ridge National Laboratory’s Titan supercomputer to drastically improve modeling subatomic particles using lattice quantum chromodynamics methods. The Jefferson Lab investigators partnered with NVIDIA ...
Oak Ridge National Laboratory’s ongoing research in molten salt reactors—along with decades of renowned efforts in the field—is bringing nuclear experts together for its second workshop on the new generation of MSRs. The October 4-5 event is organized around the theme of “Moving MS...
Scientists at Oak Ridge National Laboratory are harnessing big data capture and analytics to quickly develop deep insight into materials and their dynamics. Their new technique builds on Kelvin probe force microscopy, long used to gather information about electronic properties by “...
Heavy construction machinery is the focus of Oak Ridge National Laboratory’s latest advance in additive manufacturing research. With industry partners and university students, ORNL researchers are designing and producing the world’s first 3D printed excavator, a prototype that w...
