The award recognizes Driver’s contribution toward attosecond X-ray capabilities.

Proving the technique works puts scientists one step closer to unraveling the mysteries of hydrogen transfers.

A groundbreaking study shows defects spreading through diamond faster than the speed of sound 

X-ray laser studies help researchers identify early steps in the freezing process to better understand how clouds make ice and their effect on climate.

The results should further our understanding of similar reactions with vital roles in chemistry, such as the production of vitamin D in our bodies.

After decades of effort, scientists have finally seen the process by which nature creates the oxygen we breathe using SLAC’s X-ray laser.

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

Spiraling laser light reveals how topological insulators lose their ability to conduct electric current on their surfaces.

Researchers discover that a spot of molecular glue and a timely twist help a bacterial enzyme convert carbon dioxide into carbon compounds 20 times faster than plant enzymes do during photosynthesis. The results stand to accelerate progress toward converting carbon...

X-ray laser experiments show that intense light distorts the structure of a thermoelectric material in a unique way, opening a new avenue for controlling the properties of materials.

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 as they zip around and ultimately initiate chemical reactions.

A better understanding of this process could inform the next generation of artificial photosynthetic systems that produce clean and renewable energy.
