Argonne researchers are mapping the complex tangle of the brain’s connections — a connectome — by developing computational applications that will find their stride in the advent of exascale computing.

It’s been a fruitful inaugural year for the Q-NEXT quantum research center, with the start of foundry construction, the launch of a key R&D roadmap, and new science results that will lead to next-generation quantum technologies for science and society.

To provide X-ray beams that are both very bright and very tightly focused, an Argonne team had to create a new system of mirrors, lenses and equipment for the upgraded Advanced Photon Source.

Scientists are addressing the vulnerabilities of infrastructure systems through the lens of climate impacts by creating and adapting climate maps to infrastructure as a way for communities to protect themselves from the effects of climate change.

Swapping heavy fuel oil with fuel made from wood waste, waste fats, oils and greases could drastically cut planet-warming emissions from the shipping industry by 40 to 93%.

Construction continues one year after the groundbreaking ceremony for a new building that will house cutting-edge experiments in many fields of science.

Using the powerful X-ray beams of the Advanced Photon Source with new computer-driven algorithms, scientists will be able to study batteries and electronics at nanometer scales.

When the APS Upgrade is complete, 1,321 powerful magnets will steer the beam of electrons that creates ultrabright X-rays for scientific discovery.

In graduate school, Argonne postdoctoral researcher Katie Sautter learned to master a machine that builds bits of matter one atomic layer at a time. Now she wields her considerable skills inventing materials for quantum communication devices at Q-NEXT.

High school students mentored by Argonne staff win gold at DuPage County Afro-Academic, Cultural, Technological and Scientific Olympics (ACT-SO) and compete in nationals competition.
