Monika Schleier-Smith and Kent Irwin explain how their projects in quantum information science could help us better understand black holes and dark matter.

A laser technique lets researchers see how potentially dangerous growths form in batteries.

Both are professors at Stanford and SLAC, where Martinez is an investigator with the Stanford PULSE Institute.

A better understanding of how these receptors work could enable scientists to design better therapeutics for sleep disorders, cancer and Type 2 diabetes.

Scientists precisely control where single-atom catalysts sit on their support structures, and show how changing their position affects their reactivity.

A new method could be used to look at chemical reactions that other techniques can’t catch, for instance in catalysis, photovoltaics, peptide and combustion research.

In SLAC’s accelerator control room, shift lead Ben Ripman and a team of operators fine-tune X-ray beams for science experiments around the clock.

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.

Researchers will use SLAC’s X-ray light source to probe 150-million-year-old dinosaur fossils at the atomic level.

Researchers used a unique approach to learn more about what happens to silicon under intense pressure.

X-ray laser snapshots give scientists a new tool for probing trillionths-of-a-second atomic motions in 2-D materials
