Focused research studies of advanced algorithms and materials are setting the stage for the next generation of quantum computers.

Risk analysis on the plutonium-fueled power system that supplies electricity to the Mars rover answered the “what if” nuclear safety questions for NASA.

PNNL researchers are using explainable artificial intelligence to develop new ways to understand and interpret data for national security.

Explainable artificial intelligence—understanding and explaining the reasoning behind AI decisions—is a necessity for national security.

Explainable AI helps scientists understand and untangle the threads of information that the system uses to make choices or recommendations.

Quantum computing experts gather in the Pacific Northwest to discuss challenges and progress.

Researchers apply numerical simulations to understand more about a sturdy material and how its basic structure responds to and resists radiation. The outcomes could help guide development of the resilient materials of the future.
