Smoky Mountain Data Challenge 2020: An Open Call to Solve Data Problems in the Areas of Neutron Science, Material Science, Urban Modeling and Dynamics, Geophysics, and Biomedical Informatics
The 2020 Smoky Mountains Computational Sciences and Engineering Conference enlists research scientists from across Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) to be data sponsors and help create data analytics challenges for eminent data sets at the laboratory. This work describes the significance of each of the seven data sets and their as- sociated challenge questions. The challenge questions for each data set were required to cover multiple difficulty levels. An international call for participation was sent to students, and researchers asking them to form teams of up to four people to apply novel data analytics techniques to these data sets.

Radiation Effects Science: Advancing the Frontiers of Science and Engineering
Recent improvements in the radiation effects science capability at Sandia have achieved the following: Record gamma-ray outputs at HERMES enable qualification for Life Extension Programs (LEPs) and evaluation of electromagnetic pulse (EMP) effects on electric grid elements; Completed blind comparison for model validation of cavity system generated EMP in advanced computer simulations; For the first time, new diagnostics provide a high resolution photon energy spectrum on Z (Grand Challenge LDRD); ACRR completed record number of operations, two years in a row, to support design and qualification; Installed the nation’s largest GHz electromagnetic test chamber for design and qualification.
Atomic tunes: The intersection of Lab science and popular music from 1945-1962 How American music was influenced by nuclear science
The American public realized the magnitude at which the atom’s power could be harnessed following the detonation of Little Boy and Fat Man in August 1945. World War II ended weeks later, but the Atomic Age had just begun. Society contextualized nuclear science into pop culture as a way of processing the era’s immense technological progress. Music, among other media, became a speculative arena for expressing the awe and angst evoked by splitting the atom.
Revolutionizing Neuromorphic Computing for Science (Brochure on the 2024 ASCR Workshop on Neuromorphic Computing for Science)
The ASCR basic research needs for Neuromorphic Computing for Science workshop was held in September 2024. The workshop brochure and report aim to inform and draft a set of grand challenges for advancing the field of neuromorphic computing and developing proof of principle neuromorphic circuits applicable for High Performance Computer (HPC) acceleration for scientific discovery, and brainstorm ideas needed for a successful, robust, and world leading basic research program. The resulting priority research directions are: (1) Neuromorphic computing circuit primitives; (2) Connectivity, communication, and hardware integration; (3) Neuroscience-derived dynamics and algorithms; and (4) Ecosystem for scalable neuromorphic co-design. Breakthroughs in understanding, designing, and prototyping the circuitry and simulation capabilities for a truly neuromorphic computer are essential to enable progress in the field.

Information Science Panel joint meeting with Imaging Science Panel
Specific activity in information extraction science (taken to include data handling) is needed to: help identify the bounds of practical missions; identify potential data handling and analysis scenarios; identify the required enabling technology; and identify the requirements for a design data base to be used by the disciplines in determining potential parameters for future missions. It was defined that specific analysis topics were a function of the discipline involved, and therefore no attempt was made to define any specific analysis developments required. Rather, it was recognized that a number of generic data handling requirements exist whose solutions cannot be typically supported by the disciplines. The areas of concern were therefore defined as: data handling aspects of system design considerations; enabling technology for data handling, with specific attention to rectification and registration; and enabling technology for analysis. Within each of these areas, the following topics were addressed: state of the art (current status and contributing factors); critical issues; and recommendations for research and/or development.
