An Oak Ridge National Laboratory scientist has won the inaugural Nuclear Fusion Award from the International Atomic Energy Agency for a paper on making fusion reactors efficient enough to produce power in this century. Masanori Murakami, a distinguished R&D research staffer within ORNL's Fusion...
The Department of Energy has awarded UT-Battelle a performance evaluation of "A" for the quality and productivity of the company's research and development and for its science and technology program management at Oak Ridge National Laboratory. DOE's "report card" comes after an evaluatio...
Ned Sauthoff, an Oak Ridge physicist leading the U.S. role in a global fusion energy project, has been named a Fellow of the Institute for Electrical and Electronics Engineers.
ORNL engineers are working to convert their sunlight-based hybrid lighting technology into a multifunctional system that also produces electricity. Using advanced optics and concentrating photovoltaic materials, researchers are developing a system using the infrared portion of sunlight to generate e...
Atmosphere. "In the case of large lakes, the water can store a lot of heat w...
energy proton linear accelerator in the world, for the highest number of protons in an accum...
Characterization work by researchers at Oak Ridge National Laboratory has confirmed what Alpharetta, Ga., startup company C3 International founder Mark Deininger suspected. His company's nano-film coating is like none other and could have dozens of industrial applications. Through a High Temperature...
An electronic accountability system developed at Oak Ridge National Laboratory will result in savings of more than $2 million per year at one federal facility alone and will ensure 100 percent accountability of employees. A pilot test of the system, which uses radio frequency technology to tag and i...
Second Harvest Food Bank of East Tennessee has awarded UT-Battelle its Corporate Donor of the Year Award.Second Harvest Executive Director Elaine Machilea says UT-Battelle has been a strong supporter of Second Harvest's many efforts, including a $50,000 contribution to help provide food and pe...
ORNL researchers performing basic research have discovered a carbon nanotube-based system that functions like an atom-scale switch. Their approach is to perform first-principles calculations on positioning a molecule inside a carbon nanotube to affect the electronic current flowing across it. The re...
