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.
Led by interns from multiple DOE programs, a newly expanded dataset allows researchers to use easy-to-obtain measurements to determine the elemental composition of a promising carbon storage mineral.
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.
