An advisory committee is evaluating proposals for first experiments at SLAC’s future FACET-II accelerator facility.

Switches like this one, discovered with SLAC’s ultrafast ‘electron camera’, could offer a new, simple path to storing data in next-generation devices.

Our best model of particle physics explains only about 5 percent of the universe.

Using a 5,000-mile network loop operated by ESnet, researchers at the Department of Energy's SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory (SLAC) recently transferred 1 petabyte in 29 hours, with encryption and checksumming, beating last year's record by 5 hours, an almost 15...

To keep up with an impending astronomical increase in data about our universe, astrophysicists turn to machine learning.

Astrophysicists use a catalog of extended gamma-ray sources spotted by Fermi spacecraft to home in on mysterious properties of deep space.

Three new studies show the promise and challenge of using plasma wakefield acceleration to build a future electron-positron collider.

A specialized measuring machine at SLAC is helping scientists build precise detectors for the ATLAS experiment.

In a first, researchers measure extremely small and fast changes that occur in plasma when it’s zapped with a laser. Their technique will have applications in astrophysics, medicine and fusion energy.

The annual conference for scientists who conduct research at SLAC’s light sources engaged about 470 researchers in talks, workshops and discussions.
