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.

How to keep stray radiation from “shorting” superconducting qubits; a pair of studies shows where ionizing radiation is lurking and how to banish it.

A launch from Cape Canaveral early today carried a PNNL experiment to space so scientists can learn more about radiation far above Earth.

The Washington State Academy of Sciences added six people from PNNL to its 2022 class of inductees.

The Washington State Academy of Sciences consists of more than 300 elected members who are nationally recognized for their scientific and technical expertise.

Ultra-trace radiation detection technique sets new global standard for measuring the nearly immeasurable.

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

Scientists are exploring the use of deep neural network to interpret highly technical data related to national security, the environment and the cosmos.

PNNL's ultra pure copper and cooler part of search for answers about matter

Radiochemical Processing Laboratory: Now a nuclear historic landmark.

PNNL scientists served as lead guest editors for a special issue of the Journal of Applied Radiation and Isotopes.

Scientist-detectives put themselves to the test.

PNNL researcher Bruce Kay has been elected to membership in the Washington State Academy of sciences and three other staff members have been elected to positions on the WSAS board of directors.

PNNL research technician Jesse Lang's extracurricular passion for running has led him to run 38 super-long races, including 100-milers.

Steve Short, a nuclear engineer at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, has been selected as a fellow of the National Society of Professional Engineers.

Working with researchers with Tokyo Tech's World Research Hub Initiative in Japan and Canada, Xantheas will combine laboratory methods with computational explorations to study the biological functions of serotonin and nicotine.

For the first time, researchers have measured the force that draws tiny crystals together and visualized how they swivel and align. Called van der Waals forces, the attraction provides insights into how crystals self-assemble, an activity t

A new capability at PNNL will be able to replicate how nations process plutonium. Researchers will process small amounts of plutonium which they will analyze, using nuclear forensics techniques, to discover signatures.

Bo Peng, a Linus Pauling Fellow and molecular sciences researcher at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, was recognized at the Sanibel Symposium with the Löwdin Postdoctoral Associate Award.
