Developing new models that can use data generated by sensors on hydropower components to predict how the components will degrade over time and estimate a component’s remaining life.
New climate models on warming water temperatures in the Great Lakes region show that small differences in lake surface temperatures have a big impact on summer climate, fueling extreme weather. This is crucial information for climate resilience planning.
New insights into a gene most associated with breast cancer, gained with the help of Argonne’s Advanced Photon Source, could explain how DNA is repaired following cell division.
Scientists using the Advanced Photon Source show how ‘zinc sparks’ — the showers of zinc ions released by mammalian eggs immediately after fertilization — also occur in amphibian eggs.
The research team used the Advanced Photon Source to confirm an effective antibody that prevents the dengue virus from infecting cells in mice, and may lead to treatments for this and similar diseases.
The annual Argonne Training Program on Extreme-Scale Computing went virtual this year, providing two weeks of instruction to ready attendees for science in the exascale era.
Argonne’s collaborations in Michigan and across the United States have led to groundbreaking discoveries and development of new technologies that help meet the nation’s needs for sustainable energy, economic prosperity, and security.
