DOE Pulse - Research Highlights
DOE Pulse highlights work being done at the Department of Energy's national laboratories. DOE's laboratories house world-class facilities where more than 30,000 scientists and engineers perform cutting-edge research spanning DOE's science, energy, National security and environmental quality missions.
Following in nature???s footsteps
At DOE???s Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, Dr.
Researchers use light to create rare uranium molecule
For the first time ever, scientists have used light energy to create a rare molecular uranium nitride (U-N) complex containing a discrete terminal U-N unit, where the nitrogen atom is bonded only to the one uranium atom, versus prior work where the nitrogen atom has always been bonded to two or more uranium atoms.
INL scientist's oil-water separator to help clean up Gulf oil spill
The enormous cleanup effort under way in the Gulf of Mexico is highlighting a frustrating, somewhat paradoxical truth: while oil and water don't mix, they can be awfully hard to separate.
Unpeeling atoms and molecules from the inside out
The first published scientific results from the world's most powerful hard X-ray laser, located at DOE's SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory, show its unique ability to control the behaviors of individual electrons within simple atoms and molecules by stripping them away, one by one???in some cases creating hollow atoms.
DZero tries to beat the odds
According to the Standard Model of particle physics, the collider experiments at DOE???s Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory should never observe certain types of subatomic processes.
Turning up the heat in Alaska
Scientists at DOE's Oak Ridge National Laboratory are planning a large-scale, long-term ecosystem experiment to test the effects of global warming on the icy layers of arctic permafrost.
Cranking up the voltage in electrostatic accelerators
Electrostatic accelerators have been around for a while in everything from scientific instruments to television sets and inkjet printers.
