    Scientists Turn On Powerful New Machine for Study of Fundamental Physics
    Rutgers University-New Brunswick

    After nearly a decade of preparation, scientists – including researchers from Rutgers University – have turned on a new apparatus capable of detecting a host of mysterious tiny particles. Researchers working on the Short-Baseline Near Detector (SBND) at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (Fermilab) in Batavia, Ill., have started up the new machine and begun detecting the neutrinos produced by Fermilab’s particle accelerator beams.

    Oak Ridge National Laboratory

    Oak Ridge National Laboratory and Western Michigan University researchers demonstrated pavement markers that use embedded microchips to transmit road shape information to self-driving cars. The technology, demonstrated to government officials in Chattanooga, TN, also improves driver assist functions in all weather conditions and outperformed commercial systems when tested in self-driving cars on roads with steep curves.

    Rolling in the Deep: Norfolk Street Flooding Predicted in Seconds With Machine Learning Models
    Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility

    Scientists from Jefferson Lab, Old Dominion University and the University of Virginia recently conducted a study that compares deep learning models of street-scale flooding in the City of Norfolk with previous machine learning and physics-based simulations. Their peer-reviewed work uses data from roughly 17,000 street segments covering 400-plus miles of roadway to weigh the strengths and weaknesses of surrogate models. The research was carried out as part of the Joint Institute on Advanced Computing for Environmental Studies, a unique partnership between the lab and ODU.

    Pediatricians Highlight Role of ACIP During COVID-19 Pandemic
    Wake Forest University School of Medicine

    The Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) plays a crucial role in how the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) sets vaccination schedules for children and adults. This work was particularly critical during the COVID-19 pandemic with the remarkable advancement of vaccines amid growing public distrust of those vaccine recommendations. To highlight the ACIP’s work during this challenging time, committee members are sharing their insights and experiences with a focus on pediatrics.

    Thanks to humans, Salish Sea waters are too noisy for resident orcas to hunt successfully
    University of Washington

    Scientists report that underwater noise pollution — from both large and small vessels — forces northern and southern resident orcas to expend more time and energy hunting for fish. The din also lowers the overall success of their hunting efforts. Noise from ships likely has an outsized impact on southern resident orca pods, which spend more time in areas with high ship traffic.
