  • People and Things
    People and things John Cumalat and David Neuffer, first Robert R. Wilson Fellows at Fermilab. The Wilson fellowships are special three year appointments awarded annually at Fermilab to outstanding young physicists in the fields of accelerators and particle physics. On people Accelerator specialist Ernie Courant is the recipient of the 1979 Boris Pregel A ward for Applied Science and Technology. The presentation was made at the annual meeting of the New York Academy of Sciences on 6 December. Giving cancer treatments at TRIUMF The first treatment of cancer patients began at TRIUMF in Nov­ ember using the negative pion beam from the biomedical channel. In this first series, patients with multiple skin tumour nodules are receiving ten daily treatments. In order to assess the effect of negative pions on human tissue, some of the nodules are being treated with pions and others with X-rays. Only when this is known can treatment of larger, deep-seated tumours com­ mence. The treatments at TRIUMF have been preceded by comprehen­ sive pre-clinical investigations in­ cluding both physical and radiobio­ logical studies, the latter including cultured cells, mice and pigs. Conferences on the horizon The Sixth International Conference on Experimental Meson Spectro­ scopy will be held at Brookhaven on 24-25 April. The Conference will cover experimental results in light and heavy quark spectroscopy, rele­ vant theory and spectrometer sys­ tems. For further information please contact CU. Chung or S.J.

  • Modeling-Enhanced Innovations Trailblazing Nuclear Energy Reinvigoration (MEITNER) Overview
    Modeling-Enhanced Innovations Trailblazing Nuclear Energy Reinvigoration (MEITNER) Overview B. PROGRAM OVERVIEW 1. Summary Nuclear reactor plants are complex systems where many types and scales of technologies must work together seamlessly. Design choices at each of those scales and for each of those technologies impact the rest of the system in terms of functionality, cost, and constructability. For nuclear energy to contribute in the coming decades, the next generation of nuclear reactor plants need to simultaneously achieve “walkaway” safe and secure operation, extremely low construction capital costs, and dramatically shorter construction and commissioning times than currently-available plants. To attain these goals, new, innovative, enabling technologies for existing advanced reactor designs are needed. The development of these enabling technologies requires understanding the inter-relatedness of design choices. Thus, ARPA-E encourages a rethinking of how pieces of the nuclear reactor system fit together when developing these enabling technologies. Through the MEITNER1 (Modeling-Enhanced Innovations Trailblazing Nuclear Energy Reinvigoration) program, ARPA-E seeks to identify and develop innovative technologies to enable the advanced nuclear reactor design community to mature their designs for future commercial deployment. These enabling technologies can establish the basis for a modern, domestic supply chain supporting nuclear technology. As provided in this FOA, ARPA-E will select multiple Awardees (Prime Recipients) to develop

  • A Bold New Approach for Space Exploration and Discovery
    Office of Science and Technology Policy National Aeronautics and Space Administration FACT SHEET A Bold New Approach for Space Exploration and Discovery • Adds $6 billion to NASA’s budget over five years and draws upon American ingenuity to enable us to embark on an ambitious 21st century program of human space exploration and observation of the Earth and the Universe. • Ends NASA’s Constellation program, which was planning to use an approach similar to the Apollo program to return astronauts to the Moon 50 years after that program’s triumphs. An independent panel found that Constellation was years behind schedule and would require large budget increases to land even a handful of astronauts back on the Moon before 2030. Instead, we are launching a bold new effort that invests in American ingenuity to develop more capable and innovative technologies for future space exploration. • In consultation with our partners, extends operation of the International Space Station likely to 2020 or beyond and enhances its utilization, bringing nations together in a common pursuit of discovery in space. • Initiates several new programs to transform the state of the art in space technologies, including flagship exploration technology development and demonstration programs, investments in early-stage advanced concepts, potential “game-changing” technologies, and new propulsion technologies – all intended to increase the reach and reduce the costs of future human space exploration as well as other NASA, government, and commercial space activities. • Enhances the Nation’s global climate change research and monitoring system, accelerating decadal survey missions and re-flying a satellite that will identify global carbon sources and sinks.

The DOE Joint Genome Institute has sequenced the genome of A. niger ATCC 1015, a wildtype strain and the source of the first patented microbial fermentation process for citric acid production. Preliminary annotation indicates the presence of over 250 glycosyl hydrolases. These enzymes are crucial for the degradation of lignocellulosic biomass into simple sugars and other chemical building blocks.

The following websites provide a starting point for examining some of the excellent work done by these Federal Agencies—with a primary focus on RDD&D activities, as well as those providing data and information helpful for informing those activities. State and local activities are not covered here. This is not a complete list across agencies or within agencies, only a starting point. For all of these agencies, searching their websites for the energy-related topics of interest is the best way to get up-to-date information. For regulatory and policy issues, the work done by the Quadrennial Energy Review provides a useful overview and framework.1 AGENCY/DIVISION and URL: Executive Office of the President (EOP) https://www.whitehouse.gov/administration/eop Council on Environmental Quality (CEQ) https://www.whitehouse.gov/administration/eop/ceq National Security Council (NSC) https://www.whitehouse.gov/administration/eop/nsc Office of Management and Budget (OMB) https://www.whitehouse.gov/omb Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP) https://www.whitehouse.gov/administration/eop/ostp U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) http://www.usda.gov/wps/portal/usda/usdahome http://www.usda.gov/wps/portal/usda/usdahome?navid=ENERGY http://www.usda.gov/oce/energy/ http://www.ars.usda.gov/research/programs/programs.htm?NP_CODE=307 http://www.usda.gov/oce/reports/index.htm#renewable http://www.rd.usda.gov/about-rd/agencies/rural-utilities-service U.S.
