The atomic physics community is getting a boost with the just-completed upgrade of Oak Ridge National Laboratory's Multicharged Ion Research Facility. Researchers have been conducting experiments at MIRF since 1984. The upgrade, which broadens its range of available energies by five orders of magnit...
An infrared imaging technology used to study the composition of materials has been used by a researcher at the Department of Energy's Oak Ridge National Laboratory to find a hidden sketch covered over by an 1880s painting of a Civil War general.Oak Ridge researcher Ralph Dinwiddie says the unc...
Fort Bragg could be the model for the nation when it comes to protecting the public through a network that integrates a 911 dispatch system with sensors, alarms and video surveillance.
By controlling materials at the nanoscale, Oak Ridge National Laboratory researchers believe they can greatly improve manufacturing processes of products ranging from solar cells to computers to flat-panel displays. At the center of the optimism is a 750-kilowatt radiant plasma arc lamp that boasts ...
Two new division directors have been named at the Department of Energy's Oak Ridge National Laboratory.
Peter T. Cummings, director of the Nanomaterials Theory Institute of the Center for Nanophase Materials Sciences at the Department of Energy's Oak Ridge National Laboratory, has been elected a fellow of the American Physical Society
Preliminary results of an optical sensing technique for early detection of melanoma, the deadliest form of skin cancer, are encouraging, according to developer Justin Baba of Oak Ridge National Laboratory. While traditional techniques involve cost-intensive physical examinations and often unnecessar...
With federal requirements calling for a 90 percent reduction in particulates from diesel engines by 2007, Oak Ridge National Laboratory researchers are working with Industrial Ceramic Solutions of Oak Ridge, Tenn., in testing a cylindrical silicon carbide fiber filter to capture the diesel soot befo...
The Department of Energy's Spallation Neutron Source, located at Oak Ridge National Laboratory, is homing in on this year's completion, with focus being directed to the neutron analysis facility's scientific instruments. The SNS's instrument team has successfully installed the liquids reflectometer ...
Tiny insects that feast on juvenile pinon pine needles can have a dramatic impact on soil microclimates, which can cause a cascade effect sufficient to cause changes on a far greater scale. In a study conducted in northern Arizona by a team led by Oak Ridge National Laboratory's Aimee Classen, resea...
