Sebek’s extraordinary career at SSRL includes helping build the facility’s original electron injector back in the 1980s and working on almost all of its electrical systems since.

The discovery will help art conservators develop new preservation techniques.

Chemical reactions often involve intermediate steps that are too fast and complex for us to see  – even using our most advanced scientific instruments. Combining two X-ray spectroscopy techniques has now been shown to change that.

They aim to help society respond ten times faster with treatments for future disease outbreaks.

After almost two decades of synchrotron experiments, Caltech scientists have captured a clear picture of a cell’s nuclear pores, which are the doors and windows through which critical material in your body flows in and out of the cell’s nucleus...

Powerful X-rays from SLAC’s synchrotron reveal that our immune system’s primary wiring seems to be no match for a brutal SARS-CoV-2 protein.

A molecule with hooks that can grip and disable the virus’s pesky protease shows potential for fighting infection.

The protein could play a key role in soil carbon cycling and soil decomposition.

His work has led to new treatments for advanced lung cancer and a better understanding of dangerous parasites.

Fan’s X-ray crystallography work at SLAC’s synchrotron moves us closer to a more protective coronavirus vaccine and a better understanding of how vital materials flow in and out of cells.

Vera C. Rubin Observatory will unite coordinated observations of cosmic phenomena using the four messengers of the universe.
