As a physicist at PNNL, Jon Burnett’s work is about developing instruments to detect ultra-trace radionuclide signatures, analyze samples from around the world to look for evidence of nuclear explosions, and then interpret that information.

A new review paper led by senior research scientist Chun-Long Chen and featured on the cover of Accounts of Chemical Research summarizes advances by PNNL scientists in developing sequence-defined peptoids.

The workshop brought together 184 scientists to explore research opportunities for nuclear physics in artificial intelligence.

Despite the challenges, the talented and dedicated staff at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory kept delivering for the nation.

Project manager Larry Morgan has spent half a century at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory—marking one of the longest tenures in the laboratory’s history.

Rey Suarez was the keynote speaker at the Preparatory Commission of the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty Organization’s Specialized Technical Meeting on Preventive and Predicative Maintenance of the International Monitoring System.

Brian Milbrath, a physicist in PNNL’s National Security Directorate, was named a senior member of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE).

PNNL chemist Xin Zhang has rallied a multi-author team to produce a book the American Chemical Society published this fall.

PNNL has three small-scale spectroscopy devices that are speeding up the testing and analysis of candidate novel materials used in energy storage research and environmental remediation.

In recognition of Nuclear Science Week on Oct. 19-23, Pacific Northwest National Laboratory reflects on more than half a century of advancing nuclear science for the nation’s energy, environment, and security frontiers.

Pacific Northwest National Laboratory researchers used machine learning to explore the largest water clusters database, identifying—with the most accurate neural network—important information about this life-essential molecule.

PNNL-University of California, Berkeley scientist cited for ‘tireless dedication to the stewardship of catalysis.’

PNNL recognizes researchers during National Postdoc Appreciation Week.

PNNL quantum computing pioneer Nathan Wiebe contributed to a Google-led quantum computing landmark study published in the journal Science.

First-ever measurements provide evidence that supercooled water exists in two distinct structures that co-exist and vary in proportion dependent on temperature.

Radiation from natural sources in the environment can limit the performance of superconducting quantum bits, known as qubits. The discovery has implications for quantum computing and for the search for dark matter.
