- In the World News:
- Alan Perelson, T-10 Senior Fellow and CNLS affiliate, is featured in the Santa Fe New Mexican. The article discusses recent research into the progression of the HIV virus. This news article follows publication of this research late last year in PNAS.
- Robert Kraichnan, a long-time resident of White Rock and Santa Fe and a LANL consultant and CNLS affiliate throughout the 80's and 90's, died February 26, 2008 after a long illness. Bob was a frequent collaborator at CNLS, was an invited speaker in numerous CNLS workshops and conferences, and wrote many important and influential papers on fluid turbulence with Shiyi Chen and Gary Doolen, both former CNLS Deputy Directors.
Since 2003, Bob was Homewood Professor in the Mechanical Engineering Department at Johns-Hopkins University. A detailed record of his scientific accomplishments is available online. A notice of his death appeared recently in the New York Times. Bob's intellect and good cheer will be sorely missed by all who knew him.

What is CNLS?
The Center for Nonlinear Studies (CNLS) is part of the Laboratory's Theoretical Division, and it organizes research related to
nonlinear and complex systems phenomena. CNLS was formed in October of 1980.
CNLS Mission Statement
- Identify and study complex nonlinear phenomena using a diverse set of research approaches and methodologies, particularly those of statistical physics, nonlinear science, applied mathematics and numerical simulation.
- Promote the use of scientific results in applied research.
- Stimulate the formation of interdisciplinary approaches to complex problems.
- Facilitate the interchange of scientific results and ideas between Laboratory scientists and external centers of excellence.
- Encourage the exploration of new scientific frontiers at the interface between conventional disciplines.
- Support a broad spectrum of interdisciplinary science that underpins the Laboratory’s mission in national security.
