Stable isotope probing (SIP) experiments in conjunction with Raman microspectroscopy (Raman) or nano-scale secondary ion mass spectrometry (NanoSIMS) are frequently used to explore single cell ...

Study region: The Dnieper and Dniester Rivers of Ukraine.

To ensure the technology could be scaled up for commercialization, ORNL researchers made coin and pouch cell batteries using industry-standard processes at ORNL’s open-access Battery Manufacturing ...

Stronger than steel and lighter than aluminum, carbon fiber is a staple in aerospace and high-performance vehicles — and now, scientists at the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory ...

Researchers at the U.S. Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory have developed an innovative new technique using carbon nanofibers to enhance binding in carbon fiber and other ...

The method fills in crucial gaps by creating dynamic visualizations that allow scientists to observe how domain walls move and better estimate how much energy is required to shift them. It turns a ...

Adversarial binaries are executable files that have been altered without loss of function by an AI agent in order to deceive malware detection systems. Progress in this emergent vein of research has ...

In an autonomous chemistry laboratory on Oak Ridge National Laboratory’s main campus, a mobile robot shuttles between workstations, most of which have their own robots. Guided by advanced artificial ...

During his first visit to Oak Ridge National Laboratory, Energy Secretary Chris Wright compared the urgency of the lab’s World War II beginnings to today’s global race to lead in artificial ...

Ever since physicist Ernest Rutherford discovered the atomic nucleus in 1911, studying its structure and behavior has remained a challenging task. More than a century later, even with today’s ...

ORNL’s invention may change plastic’s environmental fate by rearranging polymeric building blocks to customize the properties of plastics. Molecular subunits link to produce polymer chains that can ...

A research partnership between two Department of Energy national laboratories has accelerated inspection of additively manufactured nuclear components, and the effort is now expanding to inspect ...
