Powerful X-rays generated at SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory help researchers shed new light on feather evolution.

SLAC will partner in two collaborations that aim to speed up progress in fusion energy science and technology.

Scientists developed a groundbreaking technology that allows them to see sound waves and microscopic defects inside crystals, promising insights that connect ultrafast atomic motion to large-scale macroscopic behaviors.

A groundbreaking study shows defects spreading through diamond faster than the speed of sound 

SLAC researcher Sadasivan Shankar talks about a new environmental effort starting at the lab – building a roadmap that will help researchers improve the energy efficiency of computing, from devices like cellphones to artificial intelligence.

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

After decades of effort, scientists have finally seen the process by which nature creates the oxygen we breathe using SLAC’s X-ray laser.

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.

Invited speakers from national labs, academia, and industry, will describe their thoughts on the future of nano/microelectronics.

The results offer important implications for astrophysics and nuclear fusion research.

The results should further our understanding of similar reactions with vital roles in chemistry, such as the production of vitamin D in our bodies.

Batteries come in many shapes and sizes, but their materials can be hard to source. SLAC researchers are trying to build them with more abundant and ethical elements.
