Called XLEAP, the new method will provide sharp views of electrons in chemical processes that take place in billionths of a billionth of a second and drive crucial aspects of life.

The next revolutionary X-ray laser in a class of its own, LCLS-II, is under construction at SLAC, with support from four other DOE national laboratories.

The SLAC scientists will each receive $2.5 million for their research on fusion energy and advanced radiofrequency technology.

Particle accelerators are some of the most complicated machines in science.

Physicist Tor Raubenheimer explores the world by climbing rocks and designing particle accelerators.

Its electron beams will drive the generation of up to a million ultrabright X-ray flashes per second.

More than 300 gathered for a day-long symposium to celebrate the history and future of the pioneering X-ray laser.

In the decade since LCLS produced its first light, it has pushed boundaries in countless areas of discovery.

He helped lay the groundwork for SLAC’s LCLS X-ray laser and for the institute, which was founded to explore the science LCLS would enable.

SLAC Director Chi-Chang Kao spoke to the Stanford University Faculty Senate at its Feb. 21 meeting.

Using a 5,000-mile network loop operated by ESnet, researchers at the Department of Energy's SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory (SLAC) recently transferred 1 petabyte in 29 hours, with encryption and checksumming, beating last year's record by 5 hours, an almost 15...

The annual conference for scientists who conduct research at SLAC’s light sources engaged about 470 researchers in talks, workshops and discussions.
