![3D printed “Frankenstein design” collimator show the “scars” where the individual parts are joined](/sites/default/files/styles/list_page_thumbnail/public/2024-04/2024-P03207%20collimator%20with%20scars%20highlighted.jpg?h=036a71b7&itok=4aO2i21j)
Scientists at ORNL have developed 3D-printed collimator techniques that can be used to custom design collimators that better filter out noise during different types of neutron scattering experiments

Oak Ridge National Laboratory scientists identified a gene “hotspot” in the poplar tree that triggers dramatically increased root growth. The discovery supports development of better bioenergy crops and other plants that can thrive in difficult conditions while storing more carbon belowground.
