The flat and the curious
DOE/Argonne National LaboratoryArgonne researchers have simulated the growth of the 2-D material silicene. Their work, published in Nanoscale, delivers new and useful insights on the material's properties and behavior and offers a predictive model for other researchers studying 2-D materials.
The inner secrets of planets and stars
DOE/Argonne National LaboratoryAn INCITE research team, led by Jonathan Aurnou of UCLA, is using Mira to develop advanced models to study magnetic field generation on Earth, Jupiter and the sun at an unprecedented level of detail.
Catch a rising science star
DOE/Argonne National LaboratoryKaren Mulfort, a chemist at the US Department of Energy's (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory, was named a 2017 Rising Star by the Women Chemists Committee (WCC) of the American Chemical Society.
Field of meteorologists' dreams
DOE/Argonne National LaboratoryWith more than 200 instruments, the Southern Great Plains (SGP) atmospheric observatory is the world's largest and most extensive climate research facility. This year, the site celebrates 25 years of operations, helping scientists gain vital insights into the Earth's cloud, aerosol and atmospheric processes.
Hacking the bacterial social network
DOE/Argonne National LaboratoryUS Department of Energy (DOE) scientists have determined the molecular structures of a highly specialized set of proteins that are used by a strain of E. coli bacteria to communicate and defend their turf.
Four Argonne researchers appointed fellows of scientific societies
DOE/Argonne National LaboratoryA select group of scientists at the US Department of Energy's (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory has been honored as fellows of the American Physical Society and the Electrochemical Society. Physicists Kawtar Hafidi and Michael Carpenter have been appointed as American Physical Society fellows and Materials Scientist Khalil Amine and Chemist Chris Johnson have been elected as Electrochemical Society fellows.
Department of Energy awards flow into Argonne
DOE/Argonne National LaboratoryDOE Secretary Rick Perry awarded Argonne with nearly $4.7 million in projects as part of the DOE's Office of Technology Transition's Technology Commercialization Fund (TCF) in September.
Exascale and the city
DOE/Argonne National LaboratoryThe Argonne-led Multiscale Coupled Urban Systems project will create a computational framework for urban developers and planners to evaluate integrated models of city systems and processes. With this framework, city planners can better examine complex systems, understand the relationships between them and predict how changes will affect them. It can ultimately help officials identify the best solutions to benefit urban communities.
