Special call for PM MaRIE LDRD proposals

The LDRD Office is issuing a special call for proposals for FY11 projects in support of the MaRIE facility. Proposals are due at 5 p.m. February 7.

MaRIE stands for the Matter-Radiation Interactions in Extremes experimental facility, the Lab's proposed signature facility for discovery of next-generation materials. MaRIE will be used to discover and design materials that will perform predictably and on demand for currently unattainable lifetimes in extreme environments. It will be used to discover and design advanced materials necessary for meeting 21st-century challenges in national security and energy security.
