29-Oct-2024 Argonne builds on past success with cathode design for lithium-ion batteries DOE/Argonne National Laboratory Argonne develops a breakthrough material for the cathode in lithium-ion batteries. It enables an across-the-board improvement in battery performance, supporting widespread adoption of electric vehicles and grid batteries.
29-Oct-2024 Collaboration speeds complex chemical modeling DOE/Pacific Northwest National Laboratory Calculating quantum chemistry quickly allows scientists to refine their understanding of complex chemical systems. Journal Journal of Chemical Theory and Computation
28-Oct-2024 Everything you always wanted to know about large language models for science (but were afraid to ask) DOE/Argonne National Laboratory Large language models are changing the way that people create and communicate, but they can also change the way we do science. Researchers from Argonne National Laboratory hope to demystify these tools and share how they’re shaping future research.
28-Oct-2024 Researchers eye ‘topological signatures’ of cyber threats DOE/Pacific Northwest National Laboratory PNNL researchers are developing a new approach to explore the higher-dimensional shape of cyber systems to identify signatures of adversarial attacks.
25-Oct-2024 Cool journey to the center of the Earth DOE/US Department of Energy Patience and complexity are the hallmarks of fundamental scientific research. It takes time to do what we do at the Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Science. Case in point: Technical staff at the DOE’s Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory have built a prototype of a superconducting cryomodule for the Proton Improvement Plan II (PIP-II) project.
25-Oct-2024 Researchers use Summit to track down nuclear fission’s elusive scission neutron DOE/Oak Ridge National Laboratory Researchers from the University of Washington, Seattle, or UW, and Los Alamos National Laboratory used the Summit supercomputer at the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory to answer one of fission’s biggest questions: What exactly happens during the nucleus’s “neck rupture” as it splits in two? Journal Physical Review Letters
24-Oct-2024 Bridging the gap between physics and computing DOE/Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility Jefferson Lab’s Experimental Physics Software and Computing Infrastructure (EPSCI) group develops centralized computing software that can be shared by any of the lab’s experimental halls and used for future projects.

23-Oct-2024 Argonne partners with Constellation to create tool ensuring equal access to all clean energy initiatives DOE/Argonne National Laboratory Groundbreaking agreement between Argonne and Constellation helps ensure equitable clean-energy decisions.
23-Oct-2024 By turning our waste into wealth, Argonne researchers are recirculating Earth’s precious resources and keeping pollutants out of the environment DOE/Argonne National Laboratory Researchers at Argonne are working toward a circular economy by developing technologies to turn waste into valuable commodities.
23-Oct-2024 What happens in the Arctic doesn’t stay in the Arctic DOE/Oak Ridge National Laboratory The Arctic is warming faster than any other area of the planet. How environmental change affects the landscape, weather patterns and infrastructure for communities — not just here but across the world — is of keen interest to scientists studying climate change. Researchers led by the U.S. Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory have been crisscrossing the Alaskan tundra for the past 12 years, collecting data as part of the Next-Generation Ecosystem Experiments in the Arctic project, or NGEE Arctic. They’re tracking rapid changes across the treeless tundra landscape as the climate warms. Funder U.S. Department of Energy
