LANL Scientists to Receive Early Career Research Grants From DOE

Early career scientists from Los Alamos National Laboratory have secured multiyear Department of Energy funding for projects in environmental science, applied mathematics and particle physics. The latest DOE Early Career Research Awards will support Rich Fiorella’s work in improving coastal-urban environmental models using stable water isotope ratios and numerical tracers and Kun Liu’s research on the hadron mass origin. Through the grant, Andrey Lokhov will apply machine learning to quantum physics, power grids, turbulence and field theories, while Yu Zhang will focus on multiscale modeling for molecular quantum electrodynamics, LANL said.
