CERN celebrates six decades of peaceful collaboration for science.

Efforts are already underway to ensure that the data the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope  collects will be ready to be mined for scientific gold.

Sulfur Cathode Experiments Test Chemistry Beyond Conventional Lithium-Ion

SLAC and Stanford's Yi Cui leads the quest to build more energetic batteries. For SSRL's involvement, read the sidebar "Batteries: An Inside Story."

The DOE has approved the project’s scientific scope, schedule and funding. SLAC researchers are among the 200 physicists and astronomers who make up the international DESI Collaboration.

Presented by Sila Kiliccote. The grid that transmits our electrical power needs a radical transformation.  The structure of the grid has not changed fundamentally since its creation a century ago. But today’s grid faces new challenges.

The raft is part of the sensor array that will make up the crucial camera segment of the telescope.

SLAC and Stanford astrophysicists made crucial contributions to the galaxy survey, showing that the universe clumps and expands as predicted by our best cosmological models.

Analyzing the motion of X-ray sources could help researchers identify dark matter signals.

Wrapping silicon anode particles in custom-fit graphene cages could solve two major obstacles to using silicon in high-capacity lithium ion batteries.

Scientists have successfully tested the first prototype camera for the Cherenkov Telescope Array.

21 of these "science rafts" will go into the world's largest digital camera for astronomy, which is being assembled and tested at SLAC.
