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.

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

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.

SLAC researchers say their new method could make it easier to study interactions of ultrabright X-rays with matter

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

Combination of research methods reveals causes of capacity fading, giving scientists better insight to design advanced batteries for electric vehicles

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

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

A better understanding of these systems will aid in developing next-generation energy technologies.

New research offers the first complete picture of why a promising approach of stuffing more lithium into battery cathodes leads to their failure. A better understanding of this could be the key to smaller phone batteries and electric cars that...
