Work opens a path to precise calculations of the structure of other nuclei.

ACT-SO and national laboratories participate in the making of a scientist.

New collider collaboration could yield new insights into atomic nuclei

Intern expands his universe by working with data from the Dark Energy Survey.

As 2019 nears, Argonne looks back at nine cool stories about discoveries in basic science and collaborations at the laboratory.

Argonne was recently named a historic physics site by the American Physical Society in recognition of the groundbreaking work of former Argonne physicist and Nobel laureate Maria Goeppert Mayer.

In a study published in the American Physical Society, the superallowed α decay chain 108Xe-104Te-100Sn into the self-conjugate doubly magic 100Sn nucleus was observed.

Argonne celebrates National Cat Day by highlighting the scientific prowess of the laboratory’s CATS — Collaborative Access Teams and the Center for Accelerator Target Science, that is.

Physicist Kawtar Hafidi has been appointed Associate Laboratory Director, Physical Sciences and Engineering (PSE) at the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory.

Graphene comes up big to increase the lifetime of photocathodes, which convert light to electricity in accelerators and other physics experiments.

Argonne scientists have developed a new sputtering technique for superconducting nitride thin films for device applications. It opens new avenues in fields of nuclear and particle physics.

Argonne TRACER Center begins new era

We tap it, pump it and draw it from below the surface of every imaginable landscape, from desert to well-manicured suburban yard. It is the one essential ingredient required to sustain life. Water.

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.

For the first time, physicists from the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory and their collaborators, led by a team from the U.S. Army Research Laboratory, demonstrated a long-theorized nuclear effect.

For nuclear physicists, the ultimate sleuths, the better the instruments, the better they can understand the subatomic ingredients of our world such as nuclei, the positively charged masses within atoms that contain neutrons and protons.

A new study, co-led by Argonne, shows that effects on the energies of excitation in nuclei can depend on how tightly the last neutron or proton is bound.

A select group of scientists at the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory has been honored as fellows of the American Physical Society and the Electrochemical Society.
