By adjusting the heating process when making lithium-ion cathodes, the team created batteries that retained nearly 93% of their energy after 500 cycles. 

The lab sent its final contribution to SLAC for the high-energy upgrade of the superconducting accelerator of the LCLS X-ray laser.

Their strategy revealed new details that open the door to designing proteins with powerful abilities that could ultimately benefit medicine and manufacturing. 

The long-time collaborator of SLAC joins the list that recognizes the impact, innovation and achievement of the world’s most influential individuals.

The X-ray Pump Probe instrument is returning to normal operations this spring, anticipating a major capability boost when the high-energy beam comes online. 

This video breaks down how Rubin will run the Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) and build a 10-year time lapse of the entire Southern sky.

SLAC scientists played key roles in leadership, survey design, cosmological  applications, studies of dark matter and of links to the cosmic microwave background.

Researchers used X-ray lasers to control a modified cardiovascular drug with light and captured snapshots showing how it binds to proteins.

Researchers reengineered an ePix10k detector for use in ultrafast electron diffraction, empowering studies of chemical processes that were previously out of reach. 

Rubin’s largest asteroid haul yet, gathered before the Legacy Survey of Space and Time even begins, is just the “tip of the iceberg.”
