A PNNL team is leading the design, fabrication, and regulatory testing, and delivery of new packaging units that will be used to ship radioactive materials safely and securely.

PNNL provided ultra-low measurements of argon-39 to date groundwater as part of a collaborative study of the aquifer in California’s San Joaquin Valley. PNNL is one of only a few laboratories worldwide with this capability.

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

Scientists at PNNL have contributed much of the nuclear science that underlies an international monitoring system designed to detect nuclear explosions worldwide. The system detects radioxenon anywhere on the planet.
