Project Overview
Major Facilities: This research program is anchored in ORNL’s core strengths in chemical, materials, neutron, computational, and nanoscale sciences, which will ensure scientific excellence. We are taking advantage of the unique user facilities available at ORNL, including the Spallation Neutron Source (SNS) and High Flux Isotope Reactor, National Center for Computational Science , Center for Nanophase Materials Sciences, as well as the Advanced Photon Source at Argonne National Laboratory (ANL). The Center’s partner institutions (Ames Laboratory, ANL, Drexel, North Carolina State, Penn State, Tulane, University of California, Riverside, Tennessee, and Vanderbilt Universities) complement and extend the scientific expertise and enhance educational outreach.
