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.
PNNL's ASSORT model will help airports balance passenger screening and security risks with throughput. It also quantifies risks for different traveler types and optimizes checkpoint operations, improving efficiency while enhancing safety.
PNNL biodefense experts seek to identify, understand and mitigate the risks of biological pathogens—whether naturally occurring or intentionally created—so steps can be taken to prepare and respond.
At the 2024 Aviation Futures Workshop, researchers from PNNL joined other subject matter experts and representatives from the stakeholder community in reimagining the passenger experience.
Research at PNNL and the University of Texas at El Paso are addressing computational challenges of thinking beyond the list and developing bioagent-agnostic signatures to assess threats.
PNNL is honoring its postdoctoral researchers as part of the fourteenth annual National Postdoc Appreciation Week with seven profiles of postdocs from around the Laboratory.
At the Nonproliferation, Counterproliferation, and Disarmament Science Gordon Research Conference, researchers from PNNL shared research and scientific approaches for countering diverse threats.
Through collaboration with the Department of Homeland Security Soft Target Engineering to Neutralize the Threat Reality Center of Excellence, PNNL is advancing research and development of tools and methodologies to protect crowded places.
Four PNNL researchers received highly competitive DOE Early Career Research Program awards, providing five continuous years of funding for their projects.
PNNL’s ARENA test bed analyzes how electrical cables degrade in extreme environments and how nondestructive examination inspection technologies can detect and locate damage.
