The Large Hadron Collider (LHC), the giant particle accelerator at the CERN laboratory in Geneva, Switzerland, will restart operations in 2015, at higher energies...

SLAC study shows the so-called ‘pseudogap’ hoards electrons that otherwise might pair up to carry current through a material with 100 percent efficiency.

After more than six years of grinding and polishing, the first-ever dual-surface mirror for a major telescope is complete.

His election recognizes a long history of accomplishment that began more than two decades ago at the SLAC Linear Collider.

Scientists have assembled an exotic toolbox for experiments that tap into the brightest X-rays on the planet.

A superconducting magnet begins its journey from SLAC laboratory in California to Brookhaven Lab in New York.

Stanford and SLAC engineers observed electrons at work during catalytic reactions. Their findings challenge long-held theories about some catalysts, opening the door to new...

In an important step toward handling the nation’s uranium milling legacy, researchers try to understand why contamination at remediated uranium processing sites continues to...

He’s known for exploring fundamental properties of novel materials on the nanoscale, and for developing new tools for the exploration.

Scientist Helen Quinn has had a significant impact on the field of theoretical physics.

Research performed in part at SLAC has provided new insights into how "TH proteins" couple two important processes needed to maintain healthy cells.

A previous study claiming the discovery of gravitational waves as cosmic inflation’s fingerprint has most likely been over-interpreted, scientists found in a joint analysis...
