While SLAC's Linac Coherent Light Source was designed to push the limits as a high-energy X-ray laser, users' requests have led staff at the...

Berkeley Lab is overseeing development of specialized undulators that will produce X-ray light at LCLS-II by wiggling electrons.

Scientists are using plasma to create electronic sensors that will track the health of astronauts.

Using an electric field, researchers drew magnetic designs in nonmagnetic material. These efforts could lead to new types of storage devices.

The discovery is one of the first steps towards mapping hues of fossilized species.

X-ray research on 80-million-year-old fossilized burrows, likely the work of tiny marine worms, is helping scientists understand how living organisms affected the chemistry of...

Jolting complex materials with bursts of energy from rapid-fire lasers can help scientists learn why some of these materials exhibit useful properties such as...

Water is more complicated than it seems. Now a study led by researchers at Stockholm University has probed the movements of its molecules on...

A new paper describes a way to fabricate glasses that can correct X-ray focusing problems at synchrotrons and X-ray lasers.

Researchers at SLAC have for the first time seen a spin current – an inherent magnetic property common to all electrons – as it...

Recent experiments at SLAC's SSRL reveal that an organic semiconductor transports electrical charge more efficiently when combined with the wonder material graphene.

They used synthetic diamond crystals as mirrors to make X-ray pulses run laps inside a vacuum chamber, demonstrating a key process needed for future...
