This event is free, open to all, and family-friendly hosted by Kavli Institute for Particle Astrophysics and Cosmology (KIPAC) at Stanford University, Science & Engineering Quad.
Batteries power everything from medical devices to electronic devices, yet the core technology hasn't fundamentally changed in decades. At the SLAC-Stanford Battery Center, scientists are working with industry to change that.
SLAC and Stanford researchers found that compressing solid-state battery material reduced the formation of lithium-filled cracks called dendrites, leading to faster charging and longer battery life.
Explore how SLAC advances energy research, partnering with Stanford University, the U.S. Department of Energy and industry, to help create a more reliable, affordable and sustainable energy future.
The deep-underground experiment could produce early-scientific results in the search for one of nature’s most elusive substances even, before reaching optimal sensitivity when the full search begins next year.
From studying chemical reactions that happen in the femtosecond timescale to advancing society’s energy technology, the Energy Sciences Directorate’s research addresses an enormous range of critical scientific challenges.
The SLAC-Stanford Battery Center enables translational research in electrochemical science and technology bridging across fundamental science to deployment.
SLAC’s advanced facilities, expertise in energy science and technology, and strong partnerships are breaking new ground in securing abundant, reliable energy. Visit our energy research page to learn more.
The LUX-ZEPLIN experiment observed a particle interaction that could be interpreted as a signal from WIMPs, a dark matter candidate – but researchers will need more data to confirm.
