Scientists have found a way to distort the atomic arrangement and change the magnetic properties of an important class of electronic materials with ultra-short...

A surprising atomic-scale wiggle underlies the way a special class of materials reacts to light, according to research that may lead to new devices...

A decade-long search ends at the Stanford Synchrotron Radiation Lightsource, where researchers from The Scripps Research Institute emerge with a clear picture of how...

The method dramatically reduces the amount of virus material required and allows scientists to get results several times faster.

With SLAC’s X-ray laser, a research team captured ultrafast changes in fluorescent proteins between “dark” and “light” states. The insights allowed the scientists to...

With SLAC’s X-ray laser and synchrotron, scientists measured exactly how much energy goes into keeping this crucial bond from triggering a cell's death spiral.

With up to a million X-ray flashes per second, 8,000 times more than its predecessor, it transforms the ability of scientists to explore atomic-scale...
