ORNL hosted the Mid-South Regional Chapter of the American Society for Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing, or ASPRS. Participants spanning government, academia and industry engaged in talks, poster sessions, events and workshops to further scientific discovery in a field devoted to using pictures to understand changes to the earth’s inhabitants and landscape.

Researchers conduct largest, most accurate molecular dynamics simulations to date of two million correlated electrons using Frontier, the world’s fastest supercomputer. The simulation, which exceed an exaflop using full double precision, is 1,000 times greater in size and speed than any quantum chemistry simulation of it's kind.

Despite strong regulations and robust international safeguards, authorities routinely interdict nuclear materials outside of regulatory control. Researchers at ORNL are exploring a new method that would give authorities the ability to analyze intercepted nuclear material and determine where it originated.
