In the search for rare physics events, extremely pure materials are essential. A partnership between PNNL and Ultramet has led to tungsten with low contamination from other elements.
Chemist Wendy Shaw, a nationally recognized scientific leader, has been chosen to serve as the associate laboratory director for PNNL's Physical and Computational Sciences Directorate.
Four engineers at PNNL received awards for nuclear science presentations related to Hanford Site cleanup at the annual meeting of the world's leading organization for chemical engineering professionals.
