About the center
What is CNLS?
The Center for Nonlinear Studies (CNLS) is part of Los Alamos National Laboratory's Theoretical Division. Since its formation in October 1980, the Center has organized and supported research focused on nonlinear and complex-systems phenomena.
Our purpose
CNLS Mission
- Identify and study complex nonlinear phenomena using statistical physics, nonlinear science, applied mathematics, and numerical simulation.
- Promote the application of scientific results to important research challenges.
- Stimulate interdisciplinary approaches to complex problems.
- Facilitate the exchange of scientific results and ideas between Laboratory scientists and external centers of excellence.
- Encourage exploration at the interfaces between conventional disciplines.
- Support interdisciplinary science that underpins the Laboratory's national-security mission.
