#TuesdayTours : Can’t come to Oak Ridge Lab? We’ll bring the lab to you! Take a walk through the Klystron Gallery where you'll get up close with the klystrons (vertical red cylinders) that power 81 superconducting cavities inside the linear accelerator. #neutrons bit.ly/3suVxfH
Jens Dilling has been named associate laboratory director for Neutron Sciences. ornl.gov/news/dilling-n…
Usually a material that conducts electricity doesn't change into a material that's an insulator. But the quantum material lanthanum strontium nickel oxide has this strange property. Scientists CU Boulder 🦬 used Neutron Sciences to study why. #ScienceNeverSleeps energy.gov/science/bes/ar…
#ICYMI #Neutrons Oak Ridge Lab proved expert villain from Bond movie did not cause the collapse of the famed Arecibo telescope after all. Check out the video here: bit.ly/44rdQzw and read the story here: bit.ly/3DVYrfT #Fridayvibes
You might know ORNL is home to a research reactor, but did you know the #HighFluxIsotopeReactor produces one of the highest neutron fluxes, or number of neutrons per second, in the world despite its core being roughly 2 feet tall and 15 inches in diameter? bit.ly/3lZCRl2
Making noncollinear van der Waals ferromagnets using bent ligands: chemrxiv.org/engage/chemrxi…
led by Jem Pitcairn, with Stephen Argent at UoN Chemistry; Mario Antonio Ongkiko & Andrew M. at Uni of Birmingham, Cheng Liu at Cavendish Laboratory and the team at Neutron Sciences (+ nontweeps!)
Get to know the High Flux Isotope Reactor Oak Ridge Lab, the strongest reactor-based neutron source in the United States. The thermal and cold #neutrons produced by HFIR are used to study #physics , #chemistry , #materialsscience , #engineering , and #biology .

For kids in underserved communities, access to #STEM experiences does not come as a given. Candice Halbert, a chemist at Neutron Sciences, is working to change this through Youth Outreach in STEM. ornl.gov/news/hands-sci…
Discoveries made possible by #neutrons at #HighFluxIsotopeReactor are helping unravel the secrets of #materials and #energy . Curious where these experiments happen? Take a peek at HFIR's instrument layout (see comments for link).
Come and explore Oak Ridge Lab's #HighFluxIsotopeReactor in VR! Immerse yourself in 360-degree multi-level views the comfort of your laptop. Get ready to delve into fascinating facts about this amazing facility! #neutrons
