After seeing the references on a couple of the articles, I got curious about tracking the source tree for the press releases.  I wanted to see which sources were quoted most often, where the deepest branching was, etc.  This is the result of that curiosity.  The most referenced source is PR Newswire.  (I suspect PR Newswire's source was EurekAlert, however, since that's where the [http://www.eurekalert.org/doe/ DOE Office of Science's main newsfeed] resides, and they copied the exact same title EurekAlert used.)  The deepest nesting is currently MarketWatch.

Press releases

After seeing the references on a couple of the articles, I got curious about tracking the source tree for the press releases. I wanted to see which sources were quoted most often, where the deepest branching was, etc. This is the result of that curiosity. The most referenced source is PR Newswire. (I suspect PR Newswire's source was EurekAlert, however, since that's where the DOE Office of Science's main newsfeed resides, and they copied the exact same title EurekAlert used.) The deepest nesting is currently MarketWatch.

  • 2007.08.07 Argonne wins three R&D 100 awards (This was linked on the Argonne Homepage for a while.)
    ARGONNE, Ill. (Aug. 7, 2007) – Researchers at the U.S. Department of Energy's Argonne National Laboratory devised three of the world's top 100 scientific and technological innovations during 2006, as judged by R&D magazine.
    “Once again, DOE's labs are at the cutting edge of innovation with new technology developments to enhance America's economic and national security,” said U.S. Secretary of Energy Samuel Bodman. “My heartiest congratulations to the DOE researchers and scientists that have won R&D Magazine's prestigious awards this year.”
    Argonne Director Bob Rosner also offered his congratulations to the winning scientists. “These awards are a fitting tribute to scientific work of the highest rank, and a testament to the quality of research that happens every day at Argonne,” he said.
