Flat-panel technology could transform antennas, wireless and cell phone communications

DOE/Los Alamos National Laboratory
Peer-Reviewed Publication

Researchers at Los Alamos National Laboratory are reinventing the mirror, at least for microwaves, potentially replacing the familiar 3-D dishes and microwave horns we see on rooftops and cell towers with flat panels that are compact, versatile, and better adapted for modern communication technologies.

New program helps New Mexico small businesses bring technology to market

DOE/Los Alamos National Laboratory

New Mexico companies who find themselves up a creek without venture capital to ferry them across the research and development gap from invention to commercialization may receive a life-preserver thanks to a new law recently passed by the New Mexico Legislature and signed by Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham.

Patient-friendly brain imager gets green light toward first prototype

DOE/Sandia National Laboratories
Grant and Award Announcement

Sandia National Laboratories has received a $6 million grant from the National Institutes of Health to build a prototype medical device that would make magnetoencephalography (MEG) -- a type of noninvasive brain scan -- more comfortable, more accessible and potentially more accurate.

Sandia, Puerto Rican university collaborate to develop energy projects for global tropics

DOE/Sandia National Laboratories
Business Announcement

A new 10-year agreement between Sandia National Laboratories and the University of Puerto Rico, Mayagüez, has the potential to bring more reliable electricity to remote communities and the latest in electrical grid technology to rural areas in the world's tropics.

Father, son bond over engineering a record-smashing roadster

DOE/Sandia National Laboratories

For the past eight years, Sandia National Laboratories manager Joel Wirth has been working afterhours in his home garage with his crew chief -- his father, Jack Wirth, a retired electrical engineer from Sandia. Together, they've built one of the fastest 1927 Model T roadsters in the world.

Space weather model gives earlier warning of satellite-killing radiation storms

DOE/Los Alamos National Laboratory
Peer-Reviewed Publication

A new machine-learning computer model accurately predicts damaging radiation storms caused by the Van Allen belts two days prior to the storm, the most advanced notice to date, according to a new paper in the journal Space Weather.

Machine learning reveals earth tremor and slip occur continuously, not intermittently

DOE/Los Alamos National Laboratory

Applying deep learning to seismic data has revealed tremor and slip occur at all times -- before and after known large-scale slow-slip earthquakes -- rather than intermittently in discrete bursts, as previously believed.

Identify, track, capture

DOE/Sandia National Laboratories

Sandia National Laboratories robotics experts are working on a way to intercept enemy unmanned aircraft systems midflight.

Cooling unit saves half-million gallons of water at supercomputing center

DOE/Sandia National Laboratories
Business Announcement

This method of cooling a supercomputer center saved a million gallons of water in six months, and could help other dry areas being drained of water cooling supercomputing centers springing up around the country.
