Each year, scientists with the Office of Science, at our national laboratories, and supported by the Office of Science at the nation’s colleges and universities, publish thousands of research findings in the scientific literature. About 200 of these are selected annually by their respective program areas in the Office of Science as publication highlights of special note.
First measurements of heat flux in plasmas experientially sheds light on models relying on classical thermal transport.
The spin direction of protons was reversed, for the first time, using a nine-magnet device, potentially helping tease out details about protons.
Since the 1980s, scientists have known that quark and antiquark spins within a proton account for, at best, a quarter of the overall proton spin.
A precision measurement of the proton’s weak charge narrows the search for new physics.
A re-analysis of data suggests that proton-neutron pairs in a nucleus may explain why their quarks have lower average momenta than predicted.
With user facilities, researchers devise novel battery chemistries to help make fluoride batteries a reality.
Inside every proton in every atom in the universe is a pressure cooker environment that surpasses the atom-crushing heart of a neutron star. That
Storing extremely slow neutrons in a novel trap enables precise measurement of a basic property of particle physics.
Insights into how nature converts carbon dioxide into sugar could help scientists develop crops that produce fuels and other products.
Scientists observe and control molecular and atomic dynamics at the fastest timescales to date.
