The Chemical Science Division's areas of research strength include ultrafast chemical science at the PULSE Institute, and chemical catalysis at the SUNCAT Center.
A venue for the SLAC community to hear about a wide range of scientific and science-related topics, presented by notable speakers from SLAC, Stanford, and institutions from around the country and the world.
SLAC and Stanford scientists used ultrafast electrons and a laser to reveal an unexpectedly strong optical response to ionization, opening new possibilities for radiological imaging and sensing while shedding light on the fundamental behavior of materials.
Now, we’re turning up the energy. The high-energy upgrade to LCLS will extend its ultrafast megahertz capability into the “hard,” or high-energy, X-ray regime.
