Argonne Research Facilities

National User Facilities

Argonne designs, builds, operates and/or manages many scientific and engineering research facilities and makes them available to outside researchers from industry, academia and other government laboratories. Six of these facilities are official U.S. Department of Energy National User Facilities or User Centers:

Operated as national scientific resources, these facilities are sophisticated research machines that would be too expensive for a single company or university to build and operate. Under some circumstances, such as when research results will be published in the open literature, researchers may be able to use these facilities without charge. When results are to be kept proprietary, a fee is generally charged for their use based on the recovery of operating costs.

Other Argonne facilities available to outside researchers

Argonne has many other laboratories and research facilities that are also open to outside researchers from industry, academia and other national laboratories for a cost-recovery-based fee. On a negotiated basis, research results may be kept proprietary or published in the open literature at the user's discretion.

If you are interested in arranging research at one of the facilities on this list, but there is no live link or point of contact listed for further information, please send email to Argonne's Office of Technology Transfer or visit their home page.
