DESI has already mapped out more galaxies than all previous 3D surveys combined, and it's just getting started.

High-speed X-ray free-electron lasers have unlocked the crystal structures of small molecules relevant to chemistry and materials science, proving a new method that could...

Scientists are exploring a variety of ways to make quantum bits. We may not need to settle on a single one.

A technique from the newest generation of quantum sensors is helping scientists to use the limitations of the Heisenberg uncertainty principle to their advantage.

The results cap 15 years of detective work aimed at understanding how these materials transition into a superconducting state where they can conduct electricity...

As we step into the quantum age, here are four things to know about quantum networks.

Nine faculty from Stanford and SLAC are among the 564 new Fellows of the American Association for the Advancement of Science.

Less than a millionth of a billionth of a second long, attosecond X-ray pulses allow researchers to peer deep inside molecules and follow electrons...

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.

Taking pictures of tiny, flash-frozen things with electrons is revolutionizing biology and technology. SLAC and Stanford host one of the world’s leading facilities for...

The X-rays they produce reveal the secrets of everything from ancient texts to modern pharmaceuticals.

Molecular movie-making is both an art and a science; the results let us watch how nature works on the smallest scales.
