Liquid Metal Spreading
Topic of Nature Article
The research of Berkeley Lab materials scientists Eduardo Saiz and Antoni Tomsia is featured in a recent edition of Nature Materials. The article describes their efforts to gain an understanding of how liquid metal spreads by linking "macrosopic measurements to phenomena occurring at the microscopic and atomic level in the vicinity of the triple solid-liquid-vapor junction." Full story.
Supercomputing Report Urges Planning, Funding

A
new report from the National Academy of Sciences, entitled
"Getting Up to Speed: The Future of Super- computing,"
recommends a long-term strategy for government support
of high-performance computing research and development.
The report concludes that the demands for supercomputing
to strengthen U.S. defense, national security and science
leadership cannot be satisfied with current policies and
levels of spending. It urges government agencies to "increase
their levels of stable, robust, sustained multiagency
investment in basic research." The Computer Science
and Telecommunications Board, which wrote the report,
includes Berkeley Lab scientist James Demmel.
Read a pre-publication copy of the report here.
