FACET-II will pave the way for a future generation of particle colliders and powerful light sources, opening avenues in high-energy physics, medicine, and materials, biological and energy science.

Daniel Ratner, head of SLAC’s machine learning initiative, explains the lab’s unique opportunities to advance scientific discovery through machine learning.

It uses terahertz radiation to power a miniscule copper accelerator structure.

This leap in capability will allow scientists to investigate quantum and chemical systems more directly than ever before.

Their work uses machine learning to transform the way scientists tune particle accelerators for experiments and solve longstanding mysteries in astrophysics and cosmology.

The technique could improve the efficiency of data collection and pave the way for new kinds of experiments.

Marking the beginning of the LCLS-II era, the first phase of the major upgrade comes online.

A proposed device could expand the reach of X-ray lasers, opening new experimental avenues in biology, chemistry, materials science and physics.

Siegfried Glenzer's team and collaborators from Tel Aviv University are working on a method that could make proton accelerators 100 times smaller without giving up any of their power.
