A team led by Los Alamos National Laboratory researchers has developed machine learning potentials that enable time- and cost-saving simulations, which could be powerful tools for everything from drug design to materials discovery. discover.lanl.gov/news/0320-ai-c…
NNSA's #Cesium Irradiator Replacement Program can cover up to half the cost of replacing these machines with alternative technology -- like an X-ray device. Plus, it reduces risk! Contact [email protected] to learn more. ☢️ #ORSProtect

Yuri Oganessian was born #OnThisDay in 1933. He was part of the team that discovered flervorium in 1998 and the element nihonium in 2003. In honor of his contributions to transactinide element research, in 2006 scientists named element No. 118 oganesson.
NNSA’s Office of Radiological Security works with law enforcement to respond quickly and effectively to incidents of radiological theft. Last month, ORS partnered with Nebraska State Patrol and delivered a new Mobile Outreach Vehicle. Contact [email protected] to learn more.
In April 1942, Enrico Fermi relocated to The University of Chicago Met Lab where he began planning the construction of the world's first man-made critical pile, Chicago Pile-1 (CP-1). Here he is (front row, left) with the CP-1 team. #ManhattanProject Manhattan Project NHP

Great to visit Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory on Monday. With vital contributions to our weapons modernization, explosives, and AI capabilities, Livermore is a leader in science for our nuclear stockpile, including the National Ignition Facility, the first facility in history to reach ignition!
On #BigWindDay , we're taking a moment to shout about Pantex Plant's 11.5-megawatt wind farm! #WindPower #RenewableEnergy
