In a first for TRISO fuel research, a cross-cutting effort among scientists at ORNL has successfully yielded first-of-a-kind neutron scattering measurements on TRISO fuel particles containing high-assay, low-enriched uranium.
After more than 25 years of experience in condensed matter physics, as a student, researcher and in high-ranking executive roles at neutron scattering sources around the globe, Jon Taylor brings a wealth of experience and accomplishments to his new position as Associate Laboratory Director for the Neutron Sciences Directorate (NScD) at the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory.
American industries face months-long waits for forged and cast metal parts from overseas, slowing innovation in areas vital to the nation’s energy, infrastructure and security. To address this challenge, researchers at ORNL’s Manufacturing Demonstration Facility partnered with Lincoln Electric to advance large-scale metal additive manufacturing.
Researchers from the University of Windsor are using neutrons at the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory to better understand symptoms associated with E-cigarette/Vaping-Associated Lung Injury (EVALI).
Oak Ridge National Laboratory hosted the first National Neutron Scattering School, where 50 early-career researchers gained hands-on experience and training in neutron science. The weeklong program prepared participants to apply neutron techniques to advanced research challenges.
