A trio of Livermore scientists have served as co-authors for three separate papers about projects they’ve worked on to upgrade wind power forecasting for the nation.
A multi-institutional research team has successfully obtained the first nanoscale video of copper deforming under extremely high strain rates.
Lawrence Livermore researchers are one step closer to recapitulating the brain’s response to both biochemical and mechanical cues in a chip-based platform.
A research team has found that outbreaks of human disease, such as the 2015 Zika virus epidemic, may be due to genetic mutation, and viruses may undergo further changes as they expand their geographic range.
The STAR (Sample Test and Recovery) array was developed to measure shock velocity and heating in up to 16 material samples irradiated with x rays.
Livermore scientists and a collaborator reviewed recent work that shows how meteorites exhibit a fundamental isotopic dichotomy between non-carbonaceous and carbonaceous groups,
Livermore scientists have helped discover that RNA viruses are abundant and diverse in soil, where they prey upon organisms such as insects, nematodes and fungi.
