Inspired by plants, scientists have created a light-harvesting material that can turn sunlight into chemical energy. However, creating a stable form of the material for large-scale usage has proved difficult. » Read More
To do its job, the popular catalyst titanium dioxide often needs an even layer of hydroxyl groups across its surface; thanks to NERSC systems and a new method by scientists at PNNL, the catalyst is now getting it. » Read More
The NDCX-II has recently marked successful completion. Designed with the aid of computer simulations executed at NERSC, the accelerator was created to study warm dense matter, an important research field in itself and particularly relevant to nuclear fusion. » Read More
To understand how water flows through the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta, 100 mobile sensors were placed into the Sacramento River on May 9 to make critical measurements every few seconds. Once collected, this data is transmitted to NERSC for assimilation and analysis. » Read More
This week, the Department of Energy’s NERSC retired one of its most scientifically prolific supercomputers to date—a Cray XT4 named Franklin, in honor of the United States’ pioneering scientist Benjamin Franklin. » Read More
A small sample of massively parallel scientific computing jobs running right now at NERSC.
