A bundle of joy has arrived @PPPL in the form of much-anticipated equipment!
The NSTX-U bundle is a key component for the National Spherical Torus Experiment-Upgrade experimental fusion device: pppl.gov/news/2026/delivery-…

Congratulations to Eva Y. Andrei, Pablo Jarillo-Herrero & Allan H. MacDonald on being awarded @KavliPrize in Nanoscience!
Their work, supported by @ENERGY, established the field of twistronics. It shows that twisting 2D materials produces new properties. kavliprize.org/prizes/nanosc…

In support of the Genesis Mission, Antares collaborated with @INL, @ORNL, @Argonne, and @SandiaLabs to develop an AI iterative workflow from design to manufacturing to 3D print the reactor’s neutron sensor bracket, which condensed a multi-month process into weeks.
