In a recent paper, an LLNL team and collaborators detail Open Polymers 2026 (OPoly26) — a dataset with an unprecedented number and diversity of polymer structures with corresponding simulations performed at quantum accuracy. 

In a recent study, LLNL researchers and the California Department of Public Health identified other potentially harmful respiratory viruses in samples that tested negative in a standard, NAAT-based panel. 

LLNL's National Ignition Facility is the hottest place on earth for the briefest of moments during an experiment, as explained in a new paper in Physics of Plasmas. 

By applying voltage to electrically control a new “transistor” membrane, LLNL researchers achieved real-time tuning of ion separations.

LLNL researchers outline how state-of-the-art computational modeling can help to unravel the fundamental relationships among battery processing, structure, properties. 

LLNL chemists are using a novel nanoscale synthesis and crystallization approach to create, isolate and structurally characterize a pure californium-containing compound.

In November, the Department of Energy Office of Science renewed the Superconducting Quantum Materials and Systems Center.

LLNL researchers and collaborators lay the foundation for understanding how POMs interact with some of the most chemically challenging actinide elements.

LLNL Director Kim Budil has been elected as a member of the National Academy of Engineering (NAE), one of the highest professional distinctions in the field. 

LLNL researchers aim to use a machine-learning model that can distinguish opioids from other chemicals with an accuracy over 95% in a laboratory setting.
