Modern technology creates new opportunities for society: Just think about how artificial intelligence has changed our cars and cell phone apps.

Imaging at SLAC's synchrotron demonstrates the twisted structures’ exotic properties that could benefit the development of superconductors and quantum materials.

SLAC develops and deploys some of the world’s most advanced scientific tools for exploring how the universe works at the biggest, smallest and fastest scales. Here we explain how they work and the exciting discoveries they make possible.

The latest results combined weak lensing and galaxy clustering and incorporated four dark energy probes from a single experiment for the first time.

The LSST Camera explores cosmic mysteries as part of the Rubin Observatory’s Legacy Survey of Space and Time.

The pandemic forced major changes to the format, but 30 teams from 22 schools still came together online to vie for a slot at...

Using SSRL, scientists uncovered fossil evidence that the first groups of vertebrates possessed surprisingly advanced eyes. 

The lab is organized into six scientific directorates, each of which plays an important role in advancing our lab, backed by our core operations teams all supporting our shared mission.

Learn about the 10-year Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST), the SLAC-built LSST Camera and NSF-DOE Vera C. Rubin Observatory in this video.
