ICE-MAN is a modeling and analysis workbench for multi-modal studies, designed with neutron science in mind. It streamlines the workflow between different experimental techniques, computer modeling, databases reduces time learning curve needed to access them thus making holistic approach data interpretation more amenable efficient.

PetaScale computing platforms need to be coupled with efficient IO subsystems that can deliver commensurate IO throughput to scientific applications. In order to gain insights into the deliverable IO efficiency on the Cray XT platform at ORNL, this paper presents an in-depth efficiency evaluation of its parallel IO software stack. Our evaluation covers the performance of a variety of parallel I...

Airborne magnetic systems for mapping unexploded ordnance (UXO) and other shallow metals have been developed at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) over the past five years .We have recently completed testing of a time-domain electromagnetic (EM) system to supplement the magnetic system for UXO investigations. The test was conducted at the Badlands Bombing Range (BBR) in South Dakota in Septem...

Monophase thorium–zirconium hydrides (ThZr2Hx) have been fabricated starting from a metallic alloy and the hydrogen stoichiometry determined by X-ray diffraction. Incoherent Quasielastic Neutron Scattering (IQNS) on the hydrides was conducted over the temperature range 650–750 K at the Backscattering Silicon Spectrometer (BASIS) at the Spallation Neutron Source (SNS) at ORNL. The isotropic Chud...
