New Math Methods and Perlmutter HPC Combine to Deliver Record-Breaking ML Algorithm

The record-breaking calculation was performed on a dataset composed of daily maximum temperatures (°C) across the United States between 1990 and 2019. (Credit: Marcus Noack, Berkeley Lab)

Berkeley Lab Works Toward a Connected Future for Science

Superfacility principles come into play as researchers use Stanford's Linac Coherent Light Source to pioneer a new form of X-ray crystallography. Experimental data was transferred automatically via ESnet to supercomputers at NERSC and back, yielding initial analysis in under ten minutes—a speed record for this type of experiment.

New Search Method Expands Horizon in Hunt for New Polymer Electrolytes

Most electric cars are powered by lithium-ion batteries, which rely on polymer electrolytes to conduct lithium ions and produce energy. Improved polymer electrolytes could improve battery performance in electric cars.

EQSIM Shakes Up Earthquake Research at the Exascale Level

Figure 1. The multiscale computational challenge of fault-to-structure simulations starting from the earthquake source, continuing through regional-scale wave propagation in a heterogeneous earth at a scale of hundreds of kilometers (“Regional geophysics domain”) and ending at local interaction between complex incident seismic waves with a soil-structure system at a scale of 30–50 m (“Local engineering system domain”).

New ‘Fair Universe’ Project Aims to Build Supercomputer-Scale AI Benchmarks for HEP and Beyond

This is a composite image of NGC 6357, a "cluster of clusters" located in our galaxy about 5,500 light years from Earth where radiation from hot, young stars energizes the cooler gas in the cloud that surrounds them, creating a cosmic dust "winter wonderland."
