Experiments with 'molecular anvils' mark an important advance for mechanochemistry, which has the potential to make chemistry greener and more precise.

When it comes to talent, versatility and the power to change the world, which atomic particle is the champ?

Two dozen teams competed for a chance to go to the Nationals, and 60 trained volunteers worked to make the regional contest happen.

The new technique will allow researchers to observe ultrafast chemical processes previously undetectable at the atomic scale.

The goal of these X-ray studies is to find ways to improve manufacturing of specialized metal parts for the aerospace, aircraft, automotive and healthcare industries.

Unique device will create bunches of electrons to stimulate million-per-second X-ray pulses for LCLS-II.

The staff scientist at the Stanford Synchrotron Radiation Lightsource discusses his research and teaching, which includes training an international group of students to conduct geobiology experiments at the synchrotron from an island about 350 miles away.

Planning the next big science machine requires consideration of both the current landscape and the distant future.

They created a comprehensive picture of how the same chemical processes that give these cathodes their high capacity are also linked to changes in atomic structure that sap performance.

These stripes of electron spin and charge are exciting because of their possible link to a phenomenon that could transform society by making electrical transmission nearly 100 percent efficient.

Successful physics collaborations rely on cooperation between people from many different disciplines.

Research with SLAC’s X-ray laser simulates what happens when a meteor hits Earth’s crust. The results suggest that scientists studying impact sites have been overestimating the sizes of the meteors that made them.
