SSRL produces extremely bright X-ray light for probing our world at the atomic and molecular level. More than 1,600 scientists from all over the world use it each year for research that spurs advances in medicine, energy production, environmental cleanup...

The Stanford Board of Trustees held its first meeting of the 2022-23 academic year Oct. 17-18. Trustees toured the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory and...

A machine learning algorithm automatically extracts information to speed up – and extend – the study of materials with X-ray pulse pairs.

To invent a new tool for studying how chemicals react at interfaces, researchers shoot tiny jets of oil and water at each other and...

For five days in May, the ancient collided with the ultra-modern at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center (SLAC), bringing brilliant, long-hidden ideas to light...

They saw how the material finds a path to contorting and flexing to avoid being irreversibly crushed.

The award celebrates Huang’s achievements studying atom-scale physics with fast X-ray pulses.
