The first measurement of the proton diffusion constant at cryogenic temperatures provides insights into the mechanism of proton movement in supercooled water.
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 “co-scientist” serves as a one-stop AI shop for accelerating scientific discovery. By leveraging AI agents, researchers can explore scientific databases, conduct analyses and request step-by-step plans for testing their hypotheses.
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.
PNNL and one of the world’s largest tire makers will work to develop a commercially viable process that converts ethanol derived from sustainable sources or waste, like recycled tires, to butadiene, synthetic rubber’s main ingredient.
