LLNL physicist Hye-Sook Park wins the Edward Teller Award by the American Nuclear Society. 

The STARFIRE Hub for IFE, led by LLNL, adds five new members to its Diode Technology Working Group. 

LLNL scientists and engineers earn four awards among the top 100 inventions worldwide.

LLNL researchers employed an AI-driven model to predict fusion ignition days ahead of the historic 2022 shot.

LLNL researchers have reached a milestone in combining AI with fusion target design by deploying AI agents to automate and accelerate inertial confinement fusion (ICF) experiments.

In a new study LLNL researchers and collaborators triggered a slow decomposition of a high explosive and measured the effects on the molecules within it. 

Using LLNL’s Sierra supercomputer, a LLNL team has made significant progress in understanding how microscopic hot spots form in insensitive high explosives. 

LLNL researchers conducted laser ignition experiments in a diamond anvil cell and employed large scale quantum molecular dynamics simulations to investigate the products of deflagration at high pressures. 

LLNL and Verne have demonstrate a novel pathway for creating high-density hydrogen.

For the first time, a team of LLNL researchers quantified and rigorously studied the effect of metal strength on accurately modeling coupled metal/high explosive (HE) experiments.
