Science and Technology Highlights

In new research published in Physical Review B, LLNL scientists report on a series of X-ray diffraction experiments on five metals dynamically compressed to 600 GPa (6,000,000 atmospheres of pressure).

LLNL scientists have developed a new technique to analyze fentanyl in human blood and urine samples that could aid work in the fields of medicine and chemical forensics.

Livermore scientists have developed a data-driven approach to predicting polymer properties using a novel machine-learning model.

Livermore scientists have developed a new technique to investigate microbial activity of microorganisms under realistic conditions, without the need for lab culturing.

Scientists have detected a previously hypothesized class of nitrogen fixation in the surface ocean.

Researchers at Livermore have discovered that ions behave differently in fusion reactions than previously expected.

Livermore scientists studied "dwell fatigue," a peculiar failure mode can initiate microscopic cracks that drastically reduce a component's lifetime, such as titanium aircraft parts.

Research suggests that immune responses could be bolstered by drugs to help people recover from brain infections caused by an emerging pathogen, according to studies of the emerging pathogen Rift Valley fever virus.

A record high-laser-energy NIF target shot on Sept. 19 produced about 1.2 million joules of fusion energy yield.
