Researchers demonstrated a path to quantitatively map hydrogen pick up in model steels.

Scientists developed a process (or pipeline) that combined molecular probes—a specific chemical that binds to microbes carrying out a particular function—with a method that isolated these cells from their complex community.

The pathway of oxygen ion movement can be controlled based on the initial structure and substrate of strontium iron oxide thin films.

Surface composition can control the electronic properties of buried interfaces.

Oxide/metal interfaces act as the primary path for oxygen to move to and around nanoscale protective oxide layers.

High fidelity simulations enabled by high-performance computing will allow for unprecedented predictive power of molecular level processes that are not amenable to experimental measurement.

A poem inspired by radioactive tank waste—“Can a Scientist Dream it Alone?”—was awarded first place in the Department of Energy’s Poetry of Science Art Contest.

A suite of experiments provide insight into how diopside reacts with carbon dioxide to form stable carbonate species.

The diversity and function of organic matter in rivers at a large scale are influenced by factors, such as the types of vegetation covering the land, the energy characteristics, and the breakdown potential of the molecules.
