Oak Ridge National Laboratory's Will Minter has been presented with a 2009 Black Engineer of the Year Award for Corporate Promotion of Higher Education.
With calls for a mass upgrade of the nation's infrastructure - especially in transportation - the Department of Energy's Oak Ridge National Laboratory is leading the way with technology involving the term smart freight, according to Oak Ridge's Randy Walker. "Smart freight would creat...
Students teams from 15 universities have been selected to advance to the semi-final round of the 2009 Global Venture Challenge 2009 March 25-27 at the Department of Energy's Oak Ridge National Laboratory.
The 2009 teams are: Clark Atlanta University/Morehous...
Scientists studying human health, agriculture and the environment have a powerful new tool to help them better understand microbial processes and how they relate to ecosystems. The GeoChip consolidates into one analysis something that using traditional methods would require dozens of tests and take ...
The National Center for Computational Sciences at Oak Ridge National Laboratory has granted early access to a number of projects to test Jaguar, which has peak performance of 1.6 petaflops and is the most powerful computer in the world for open science. The "Petascale Early Science" period will run ...
Researchers at ORNL and Vanderbilt University have unveiled a new technique for imaging whole cells in liquid using a scanning transmission electron microscope. Electron microscopy is the most important tool for imaging objects at the nano-scalethe size of molecules and objects in cells. But electr...
Colonies of cyber robots with unique missions can in near real time detect network intruders on computers that support U.S. infrastructure. These "cybots" created for an ORNL software program called UNTAME (Ubiquitous Network Transient Autonomous Mission Entities) may be especially useful for helpin...
For the first time, farmers have data that tracks at the county level on-site and off-site energy use and carbon dioxide emissions associated with growing crops in the United States. This information is vital for examining changes in cropland production and management techniques and could play an...
The U.S. Department of Energy has given its initial approval to begin plans for a second target station for the Spallation Neutron Source, expanding what is already the world's most powerful pulsed neutron scattering facility located at DOE's Oak Ridge National Laboratory.
