Ordinary alfalfa plants are being used as miniature gold factories that one day could provide the nanotechnology industry with a continuous harvest of gold nanoparticles.
At the International Conference on High Energy Physics in Amsterdam on July 25, the BaBar collaboration working at the Department of Energy's Stanford Linear Accelerator Center (SLAC) announced their new measurement of a parameter known as sine two beta, that...
Last week at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center (SLAC), the BABAR experiment's database stored its 500,000th Gigabyte - a milestone that makes it the largest known database in the world.
For two weeks in February the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center (SLAC) was the focal point for discussion and long term planning in global high-energy physics.
Under his leadership, the lab diversified its research portfolio, expanded its science impact, advanced major projects, increased collaboration with Stanford and met the challenges of a global pandemic.
Researchers discover that electrons play a surprising role in heat transfer between layers of semiconductors, with implications for next-generation electronic devices.
If scaled up successfully, the team's new system could help answer questions about certain kinds of superconductors and other unusual states of matter.
If there were a disaster or emergency affecting the SLAC community, you would be able to obtain updates and important instructions through this website.
The SLAC campus is located on 426 acres of Stanford University property, just three miles west of the university campus. The main entrance to the facility is on Sand Hill Road, just east of Interstate 280.
As deputy director for operations and chief operating officer, John Connolly is responsible for ensuring the effective integration and performance of operations functions that support the lab’s growing scientific mission. He collaborates closely with our science directorates and works to...
