Picking a relatively simple system, scientists at the Department of Energy's Stanford Linear Accelerator Center (SLAC) and their collaborators used advanced tools to see...

CA—Scientists working in part at the Department of Energy's Stanford Synchrotron Radiation Laboratory (SSRL) have discovered a gene for a protein that regulates the...

A collaboration of scientists including researchers from the Department of Energy's Stanford Linear Accelerator Center (SLAC) have for the first time successfully demonstrated the...

The Department of Energy's Stanford Linear Accelerator Center officially broke ground today for the Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS), the world's first X-ray free-electron...

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

One of 17 national laboratories supported by the U.S. Department of Energy, SLAC is also marking its 60th anniversary this year.

Under his 10-year leadership, the lab has significantly expanded its research and impact.

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

Quantum sensing uses quantum phenomena to detect extremely subtle signals or changes that are beyond the reach of many traditional sensors.

Superconducting quantum bits, or qubits, are at the heart of many quantum computers, acting like supercharged versions of the traditional bits found in classical...

Quantum materials behave in unexpected ways compared to the classical materials we are used to. 

The technology could save the lives of COVID-19 patients when more advanced ventilators are too expensive or not available.
