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

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

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."

Two groups of researchers drew on SLAC tools to better understand how to target a key part of the virus that causes COVID-19.

Researchers discover that a spot of molecular glue and a timely twist help a bacterial enzyme convert carbon dioxide into carbon compounds 20 times...

Cryo-EM snapshots of the solid-electrolyte interphase, or SEI, reveal its natural swollen state and offer a new approach to lithium-metal battery design.

En route to record-breaking X-rays, SLAC’s Cryogenic team built a helium-refrigeration plant that lowers the LCLS-II accelerator to superconducting temperatures.

This annual meeting is a unique opportunity to gather together the light source community in a single scientific event that includes numerous presentations in...

The lab’s signature particle highway prepares to enter another era of transformative science as the home of the LCLS-II X-ray laser.
