The fellowship will support their research on new capabilities for the lab's X-ray free-electron lasers and new telescope technology to look for signs of cosmic inflation.

SLAC visiting scientist and consulting professor Claudio Pellegrini is honored for contributions to free-electron laser science.

How do accelerators survive in some of the most earthquake-prone regions on Earth?

A commercial X-ray source with roots in SLAC research enables multi-mode computer tomography scans that outperform routine scans in hospitals. The technique could potentially find widespread use in medicine and other fields.

A new study shows that crystals could become a valuable tool to control and manipulate electron beams in next-generation X-ray light sources and particle colliders.

His election recognizes a long history of accomplishment that began more than two decades ago at the SLAC Linear Collider.

SLAC and RadiaBeam Systems have teamed up to construct a “dechirper” that will allow scientists to adjust the “color spectrum” of X-ray pulses in pioneering LCLS experiments.

Scientists have demonstrated that a promising technique for accelerating electrons on waves of hot plasma is efficient enough to power a new generation of shorter, more economical accelerators.

As charged-particle therapies grow in popularity, physicists are working with other experts to make them smaller, cheaper and more effective—and m

Zhirong Huang, Bill Fawley and Erik Hemsing Honored at Annual Free-electron Laser Conference

Last year, a monster magnet set out from Brookhaven National Lab on an epic trek by land and sea to Fermilab, where it will serve as the heart of a search for evidence of new subatomic particles. Last month, researchers...
