内容简介：
【简介】 The Pacific Northwest National Laboratory is one of nine U.S. Department of Energy multiprogram national laboratories.
Battelle has operated Pacific Northwest for DOE and its predecessors since 1965.
Pacific Northwest National Laboratory's history began in 1965 when Battelle won the contract to perform research and development for the Hanford Site, a nuclear site in southeastern Washington State. The Laboratory's first projects were based on the needs of the Hanford Site and included protecting the environment, fabricating reactor fuel, and designing reactors. These projects, staff expertise in diverse fields, and national needs led to outstanding research and development in several key areas: environment, health, energy, computer science, and security.
