From a nondescript industrial building in the small town of Crossville, Tennessee, the team of engineers at Whisper Aero is planning a revolution in aviation technology. Previously home to a publisher of magazines — including, coincidentally, Trade-A-Plane, an airplane sales publication started in 1937 — the long-empty property’s cavernous spaces are
Quantum computing systems are increasingly used in science and security applications but have several challenges that limit more widespread utilization. Among them is that they suffer from significant amounts of noise that result in high error rates during computational tasks. This technology is a visual analytics tool for interactive analysis to improve the performance of
The 14th Beyond Lithium-Ion Conference (BLI-XIV) will be hosted by Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) from July 23 to July 25, 2024 at the Crowne Plaza hotel in downtown Knoxville. This meeting continues a series of symposia organized by a consortium of U.S. National Laboratories (including Argonne, Lawrence Berkeley, Pacific Northwest, SLAC, and National Renewable
Evaluate the historical performance and future projections of compound heatwave and drought (CHD) extremes across the contiguous United States using CMIP6 global climate models, providing insights for regional adaptation strategies in response to
The objective of this study is to explore and analyze the spatial patterning of sociodemographic disparities in extreme heat exposure across multiple scales within the Conterminous United States (CONUS). Specifically, the study aims to assess differences in heat exposure across various sociodemographic factors such as race, housing characteristics, and poverty level, at national, regional, and local levels.
ORNL’s fully on-chip CMOS-fabricated integrated photonic circuit can generate polarization or frequency entangled photons for use in quantum communications and networking. Contact To learn more about this technology, email [email protected] or call 865-574-1051.
Power utilities are increasingly deploying intelligent electronic devices inside and outside substations. Sharing data in substations between utility-owned devices and customer-owned distributed energy resources (DERs) risks the integrity and confidentiality of that data. A means to protect this information is crucial. This technology is a cyber-grid guard system using distributed ledger technology (DLT) that includes
Technologies directed quantum spectroscopy and imaging with Raman and surface-enhanced Raman scattering are described. Contact To learn more about this technology, email [email protected] or call 865-574-1051.
A team of computational scientists at ORNL has generated and released datasets of unprecedented scale that provide the ultraviolet visible spectral properties of over 10 million organic molecules.
Research performed by a team, including scientists from ORNL and Argonne National Laboratory, has resulted in a Best Paper Award at the 19th IEEE International Conference on eScience.
This summer, ORNL welcomed more than 500 students to campus through the lab’s range of internship programs, which are offered in areas such as biology, national security and computing.
Researchers from institutions including ORNL have created a new method for statistically analyzing climate models that projects future conditions with more fidelity.
