	Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Ernest Orlando Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL), formerly the Berkeley Radiation Laboratory and usually shortened to Berkeley Lab or LBL is a U.S. Department of Energy national laboratory in Berkeley, California conducting unclassified scientific research.
		Lawrence courted government as his sponsor in the early years of the Manhattan Project, the American effort to produce the first atomic bomb during World War II, and along with the MIT Radiation Laboratory (which helped to develop radar), ushered in the era of "Big Science".
		After the laboratory was scooped on a number of fundamental discoveries that they felt they ought to have made, the "cyclotroneers" began to collaborate more closely with the theoretical physicists in the Berkeley Department of Physics, led by Robert Oppenheimer.

	The Office of Science - National Laboratories and User Facilities
		NSTX is an innovative magnetic fusion device that was constructed by the Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory in collaboration with the Oak Ridge National Laboratory, Columbia University, and the University of Washington at Seattle.
		These laboratories perform research and development that is not well suited to university or private sector research facilities because of its scope, infrastructure, or multidisciplinary nature, but for which there is a strong public and national purpose.
		A high level of collaboration among all of the national laboratories in the use of world-class scientific equipment and supercomputers, facilities, and multidisciplinary teams of scientists increases their collective contribution to DOE and the Nation, making the laboratory system more valuable as a whole than as the sum of its parts.

	BERKELEY / UC retains contract to run Berkeley lab / University's bid was unchallenged
		The University of California has won renewal of its $2.3 billion, five-year contract to oversee the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, one of three major research labs managed by UC for the federal government, Energy Secretary Samuel W. Bodman announced in Washington on Tuesday.
		Steven Chu, the Stanford physicist who was named last June to head the institution high on the hill above the UC Berkeley campus, was traveling abroad Tuesday but noted that the institution's scientists had had "a distinguished record of partnership" and an "impressive record of success" in their work.
		Founded in 1931 by the late Ernest O. Lawrence, the facility and its founder played a major part in developing the science behind the atom bomb during World War II, and the lab has been a federal facility since 1942.

		Aerosol Coating: conducted laboratory experiments, and modeling of new aerosol injection technologies concepts for coating.
		Several years of research by LBNL in California (funded by DOE, CIEE, and EPA), and a parallel effort in the state of Florida by the Florida Solar Energy Center (FSEC), have now shown that the previously unrecognized problems plaguing duct systems in residences are also found in small commercial buildings.
		Figure 3: Two major field studies by LBNL and FSEC have verified that duct leakage problems in light commercial buildings are at least as bad as they are in residential buildings.
