In soil, microbes produce and consume methane. Using a technique called pool dilution, researchers can separate the rate of methane production and consumption from the net rate.

Researchers designed ultra-low radiation cables to reduce background noise for highly sensitive neutrino and dark matter detectors.

A team of researchers at PNNL designed and constructed an atmospheric chamber to simulate the fate of volatile and semivolatile radioisotopes.

The ChemSpace Tool, when fully developed, is intended to divide chemical space into three subsets: the detectable space, the identifiable space, and the region that includes compounds that are not detectable or identifiable.

Researchers combined crystallographic data and computational studies to investigate plutonium-ligand bonding within a hybrid material construct.

Microbes that were previously frozen in soils are becoming more active. This study demonstrates the diverse RNA viral communities found in thawed permafrost.

The size of the alkali metal within the material influences the crystallization pathway.

Combining advanced powder synthesis with solid state processing allows researchers to streamline oxide dispersion-strengthened steel fabrication.

Different sized helium cavities that form after ion irradiation are unevenly distributed in a ductile-phase toughened tungsten composite.

Pacific Northwest National Laboratory researchers developed a patented, nearly non-destructive approach, known as liquid secondary ion mass spectrometry, to analyze nuclear samples.

Contributions from researchers across Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) were recently recognized in the preliminary findings of a Secretary of Energy Advisory Board (SEAB) report.
