Collisions are all around us. Analyzing them can help us understand such phenomena as the flight of a golf ball when it’s hit by a club, or the behavior of the particles that form matter.

Objects move and halt when forces are applied. Mass, velocity, and time define the physical quantities of impulse and momentum. Understanding them is crucial to designing safer products like cars, shoes, sports equipment.
Livermore scientists have identified a robust suite of technologies to help California clear the last hurdle and become carbon neutral – and ultimately carbon negative – by 2045.
Scientists have developed a new class of aerogel electrodes with a simultaneous boost in energy and power density.
Scientists at the National Ignition Facility have reached a better understanding of the causes of plasma instabilities.
A research team has developed a thin-film, 3D flexible microelectrode array (3DMEA) that non-invasively interrogates a 3D culture of neurons and can accommodate 256 channels of recording or stimulation.
On Jan. 21, 1968, an aircraft accident involving a United States Air Force B-52 bomber occurred near Thule Air Base in the Danish territory of Greenland.
An LLNL team has proven that nanocarbon can be synthesized by applying strong shocks to an organic material.
How something moves through space depends on its mass, shape, velocity, and other factors. Analyzing the flight of a jet or orbit of a satellite requires understanding its moment of inertia.
Micrometer-sized silicon carbide stardust grains extracted from the Murchison meteorite formed anywhere from 1.5 million to 3 billion years before the formation of our solar system.
