• Superheavy element Flerovium is a volatile metal
  An international research team has succeeded in gaining new insights into the chemical properties of the superheavy element Flerovium - element 114 - at the accelerator facilities of the GSI Helmho...

• Bioengineered bacteria to increase U.S. supply of rare earth metals
  To help increase the U.S. supply of rare earth metals, a Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) team has created a new way to recover rare earths using bioengineered bacteria. Rare earth ...
• At threshold of fusion ignition
  On Aug. 8, 2021, an experiment at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory's (LLNL's) National Ignition Facility (NIF) made a significant step toward ignition, achieving a yield of more than 1.3 mega...

• Inventing the world's strongest silver
  A team of scientists has made the strongest silver ever - 42 percent stronger than the previous world record. But that's not the important point. "We've discovered a new mechanism at work at the na...

• The superionic form of water confirmed
  An original state, both solid and liquid at the same time: this is the latest news on a substance-water-so familiar to everyone but which appears to hold always fresh surprises for scientists. ...

• IUPAC Announces the Names of the Elements 113, 115, 117, and 118
  On 28 November 2016, the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) approved the name and symbols for four elements: nihonium (Nh), moscovium (Mc), tennessine (Ts), and oganesson (Og...
• 3-D printed polymer turns methane to methanol
  Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory scientists have combined biology and 3-D printing to create the first reactor that can continuously produce methanol from methane at room temperature and pres...
• X-ray study reveals ultrafast dynamics of photoactive yellow protein
  Using a high-speed X-ray camera, an international team of scientist including researchers from DESY has revealed the ultrafast response of a biosensor to light. The study, published in the US journ...

• Efficient method to produce nanoporous metals
  Nanoporous metals - foam-like materials that have some degree of air vacuum in their structure - have a wide range of applications because of their superior qualities. They possess a high surface a...
• New kind of ion channel consisting of short carbon nanotubes created
  These carbon nanotube "porins" have significant implications for future health care and bioengineering applications. Nanotube porins eventually could be used to deliver drugs to the body, serve as ...

• New sensor to detect molecules present in the tiniest of concentrations
  Using carbon nanotubes, a research team led by Professor Hyung Gyu Park in collaboration with Dr. Tiziana Bond has developed a sensor that greatly amplifies the sensitivity of commonly used but typ...

• The first atomic X-ray laser
  In future, scientists should be able to observe more closely how plants generate sugar from the energy in sunlight or how electricity is generated from solar cells. Researchers at the Center for Fr...
