The early-career award honors a promising leader in X-ray free-electron laser research.

The annual conference for scientists who conduct research at SLAC’s light sources engaged more than 1,700 researchers in talks, workshops and discussions.

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.

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

The ePix10k detector is ready to advance science at SLAC’s Linac Coherent Light Source X-ray laser and at facilities around the world.

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.

Learning how liquid silicates behave at these extreme temperatures and pressures has been a longstanding challenge in the geosciences.

New research shows that when a bunch of electrons zooms through the middle of a ring-shaped laser beam, the bunch can wind up with higher quality and generate a brighter X-ray beam.
