Clouds in the eastern North Atlantic region will come under scrutiny from a bevy of airplane-based instruments this summer, courtesy of the U.S. Department of Energy's Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) Climate Research Facility. Scientists will …
Man-made pollution in eastern China's cities worsens when less dust blows in from the Gobi Desert, according to a new study published May 11 in Nature Communications. Yes, you read that correctly: When less natural dust blows in, the air quality for …
Two familiar molecules that affect our brains will get increased scrutiny by researcher Sotiris Xantheas, a chemist at the Department of Energy's Pacific Northwest National Laboratory who has been invited to join Tokyo Tech's World Research Hub …
Current information indicates that it wasn't the gas but a coating on the dirigible's skin that was primarily responsible for the catastrophe. Hydrogen safety experts say the misconceptions regarding the Hindenburg have colored perceptions about …
Organic matter found in vast quantities in oxygen-starved floodplains would yield only minimal energy for hungry microorganisms, which spurn the meal, researchers show in a study published this week in Nature Geoscience. The soils beneath our feet contain …
Two seasoned researchers at the Department of Energy's Pacific Northwest National Laboratory have been recognized for their long list of technological and scientific innovations. Jun Liu was named PNNL Inventor of the Year and Vincent Sprenkle became …
Glass scientists at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory hosted the Department of Energy's Acting Assistant Secretary for Environmental Management, Sue Cange earlier this month. DOE's Office of Environmental Management's mission is to …
About 550 kids learned about the amazing science that happens every day at the Department of Energy's Pacific Northwest National Laboratory with hands-on demonstrations and tours during the lab's annual Take Our Kids to Work Day event on April 27. …
Like two magnets being pulled toward each other, tiny crystals twist, align and slam into each other, but due to an altogether different force. For the first time, researchers have measured the force that draws them together and visualized how they swivel …
Small particles of pollution and dust make clouds brighter, and now scientists have figured out a way to better use data to improve our understanding of how this process affects the planet's climate. Reporting this week in the Proceedings of the …
Today marks the 31st anniversary of the catastrophic explosion at the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant's Unit 4 reactor. The blast discharged 400 times the radioactivity released by the Hiroshima bomb and drove nearly 200,000 people from their homes near …
With about three times the energy capacity by weight of today's lithium-ion batteries, lithium-air batteries could one day enable electric cars to drive farther on a single charge. But the technology has several holdups, including losing energy as it …
Three small businesses have been selected to collaborate with researchers at the Department of Energy's Pacific Northwest National Laboratory to address technical challenges concerning bio-coal, hydrogen for fuel cell cars, and nanomaterial …
High concentrations of tiny pollution particles near the Sierra Nevada Mountains in the western United States invigorate cloud formation and boost snowfall on the mountains, according to a new study by scientists at the Department of Energy's Pacific …
When Shuaiwen Leon Song boots up Doom 3 and Half-life 2, he does so in the name of science. Song studies high performance computing at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, with the goal of making computers smaller, faster and more energy efficient. A …
To study some of the tiniest particles in the universe, an international band of over 750 physicists from 23 countries is building a massive instrument. The instrument will smash subatomic particles together and analyze the debris to look for signs of …
Rare capabilities at the Department of Energy's Pacific Northwest National Laboratory are being enlisted in the fight to prevent threats from those who might steal nuclear material. Plutonium in weapons usable forms can be produced through various …
Silky chocolate, a better medical drug, or solar panels all require the same thing: just the right crystals making up the material. Now, scientists trying to understand the paths crystals take as they form have been able to influence that path by …
A new window on the Arctic region is opening up, thanks to scientists at the Department of Energy's Pacific Northwest National Laboratory and several other DOE laboratories. The ArcticShark, an unmanned aerial system designed to collect the most …
When a molecule of water comes in for a landing on the common catalyst titanium oxide, it sometimes breaks up and forms a pair of molecule fragments known as hydroxyls. But scientists had not been able to show how often the breakup happened. Now, …
