An F-15 fighter jet flies only 60 times faster than the world’s fastest human, Usain Bolt, can run. But the upgrade of the U.S. Department of Energy’s Advanced Photon Source at Argonne National Laboratory will make it 500 times brighter than it is today.
How will the next generation of scientists overcome challenges in physics and energy storage? How will artificial intelligence transform scientific inquiry?
Storms that cause flooding often catch us by surprise. Fortunately, Argonne researchers are using high-performance computers to better predict which areas are likely to flood.
Four decades ago, an ambitious group of women scientists at the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory banded together to help form a group that would empower generations of women to come.
On December 2, 1942, as World War II raged, a small group of scientists gathered beneath the football stands of the University of Chicago for a physics experiment that would very literally change the world.
No doubt the emergence of connected and autonomous vehicles (CAVs) will have new and exciting effects on patterns and modes of transportation, but when it comes to measuring those effects, the future gets a little hazier.
Southern California defines cool. The perfect climes of San Diego, the glitz of Hollywood, the magic of Disneyland. The geology is pretty spectacular, as well.
Eleventh-grader Shadin Zayyad of Hickory Hills, Illinois, was greatly impressed by the multi-million-dollar facilities at the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory.
