Nation’s First ‘Neutron Nexus’ Launched with ORNL

Oak Ridge National Laboratory has launched its Neutron Nexus pilot program with Florida Agricultural & Mechanical University, or FAMU, and Florida State University, or FSU, through the FAMU-FSU College of Engineering.

The first program of its kind nationwide aims to broaden and diversify the scientific user community by reaching out to universities and colleges to increase collaboration and, ultimately, scientific advancement. 

Scientists Aim to Develop Safe, Reliable and Affordable Battery for Power Grids

Researchers from the FAMU-FSU College of Engineering are collaborating with top universities, including Stanford and SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory, to tackle one of the energy sector’s biggest challenges: storing electricity for the grid safely, reliably and at a low cost.

As part of the Aqueous Battery Consortium, a project funded by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), these scientists are working to overcome the limitations of batteries that use water as an electrolyte.
