Widely held notions about why so-called high- transition temperatures superconductivity occurs may not be accurate after all, according to a team of researchers whose paper was published in the June 3 issue of Nature. At the heart of the issue is the observation of new excitations that scientis...
UT-Battelle has donated $150,000 in support of the Nine Counties. One Vision. recommendation to help improve the region's science education. The gift will fund a University of Tennessee science education workshop July 13-23 for 40 middle school teachers from the nine Knox-area counties.
UT-Battelle, the managing contractor for the Department of Energy's Oak Ridge National Laboratory, has received an award from the federal agency for the laboratory's record of promoting diversity in subcontracting work to small businesses.
TVA and Oak Ridge National Laboratory have formed a partnership that will soon allow researchers and scientists at colleges and universities across the Tennessee Valley to connect to ORNL's supercomputer center to further strategic collaborations, enhance academic excellence and leverage econo...
Touting potential economic benefits to Tennessee, the state's head of economic development helped dedicate a new $10 million facility Friday to house the Joint Institute for Computational Sciences at Oak Ridge National Laboratory. The new 52,000-square-foot building establishes a unique partnership...
Oak Ridge National Laboratory's High Flux Isotope Reactor (HFIR), one of the world's most powerful research reactors, is marking a milestone this month -- its 400th fuel cycle since it began operation in 1966.A fuel cycle represents the time -- about 25 days -- it takes for the reactor
A one-step process to separate cesium and strontium from caustic waste could possibly lead to significant savings in processing, transportation and storage of some 34 million gallons of nuclear waste at the Savannah River Site. Laetitia Delmau of Oak Ridge National Laboratory's Chemical Sciences Div...
Tomorrow's engines could boast greater fuel efficiency and lower emissions because of a system being developed by Oak Ridge National Laboratory. New ORNL test data shows that spark-assisted homogeneous charge compression ignition has a 12 percent improvement in fuel efficiency and a 95 percent reduc...
Jeffery C. Blackmon of Oak Ridge National Laboratory is one of five Department of Energy recipients of the latest Presidential Early Career Awards for Scientists and Engineers (PECASE), presented today in a White House ceremony.
Oak Ridge is a long way from Memphis, but Oak Ridge National Laboratory technology soon could have more of a presence in the state's largest city, ORNL Director Jeff Wadsworth said Friday.
