Strategic Initiatives

At SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory, Q-NEXT collaborator Shannon Harvey develops quantum dots — a mass-producible type of qubit. Driven by curiosity about nature and how things work, Harvey draws on her facility for working at the nanoscale.

An Argonne-led research team has released a catalog of more than 7,000 confirmed galaxy clusters from five years of South Pole Telescope data, opening a powerful new window into the large-scale structure and evolution of the universe.

Researchers uncover insights into the physics behind diamond’s superconductivity by creating high-quality diamond, isolating electronic signatures and revealing long-hidden underlying mechanisms.

This technique allows scientists to probe deeper into the behavior of atoms and quantum particles.
