## Corning uses neutrons to reveal how ‘atomic rings’ help  predict glass performance

January 12, 2024

Corning uses neutron scattering to study the stability of different types of glass. Recently, researchers for the company have found that understanding the stability of the rings of atoms in glass materials can help predict the performance of glass products.

## ORNL’s 2023 top science achievements at SNS, HFIR

December 27, 2023

The 2023 top science achievements from HFIR and SNS feature a broad range of materials research published in high impact journals such as Nature and Advanced Materials.

## ORNL is poised to have a major role in the future of nuclear physics

October 6, 2023

ORNL, a bastion of nuclear physics research for the past 80 years, is poised to strengthen its programs and service to the United States over the next decade if national recommendations of the Nuclear Science Advisory Committee, or NSAC, are enacted.

## From atomic nuclei to astrophysics, collaborative program builds basis for scientific discoveries 

September 18, 2023

ORNL is leading two nuclear physics research projects within the Scientific Discovery through Advanced Computing, or SciDAC, program from the Department of Energy Office of Science. 

## ‘Doubly magic’ rare isotope oxygen-28 can’t overcome its neutron-rich instability 

August 30, 2023

Rare isotope oxygen-28 has been determined to be "barely unbound" by experiments led by researchers at the Tokyo Institute of Technology and by computer simulations conducted at ORNL. The findings from this first-ever observation of 28O answer a longstanding question in nuclear physics: can you get bound isotopes in a very neutron-rich region of the nuclear chart, where instability and radioactivity are the norm? 

## Madhavi Martin: Shedding light on natural processes 

August 29, 2023

Madhavi Martin brings a physicist’s tools and perspective to biological and environmental research at the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory, supporting advances in bioenergy, soil carbon storage and environmental monitoring, and even helping solve a murder mystery.

## ORNL wins six R&D 100 research awards 

August 23, 2023

Technologies developed by researchers at ORNL have received six 2023 R&D 100 Awards.  

## Long-lived quantum state points the way to solving a mystery in radioactive nuclei

August 16, 2023

Timothy Gray of ORNL led a study that may have revealed an unexpected change in the shape of an atomic nucleus. The surprise finding could affect our understanding of what holds nuclei together, how protons and neutrons interact and how elements form.

## Element creation in the lab deepens understanding of neutron stars

May 23, 2023

Led by Kelly Chipps of ORNL, scientists working in the lab have produced a signature nuclear reaction that occurs on the surface of a neutron star gobbling mass from a companion star. Their achievement improves understanding of stellar processes generating diverse nuclear isotopes.

## Chipps appointed to federal Nuclear Science Advisory Committee

May 15, 2023

Kelly Chipps, a nuclear astrophysicist at ORNL, has been appointed to the Nuclear Science Advisory Committee, or NSAC. The committee provides official advice to DOE and the National Science Foundation, or NSF, about issues relating to the national program for basic nuclear science research.
